How to change the taillight bulb of a Volkswagen Amarok

Model: Volkswagen Amarok MK 1 - Years 2010-2021
Part: Light bulb

In this video we see how to change the rear headlight bulb of a Volkswagen Amarok: we need to lower the rear side of the pick-up truck, in order to discover the bolts on the inside of the panel, which allow us to remove the rear headlight: in fact, once the bolts are removed, we just need to pull the headlight unit upwards and towards us, to remove it from its housing. Disconnect the electrical connector and now that we have the headlight in hand, we turn it over and remove the bolts that close the rear part; we release the clips and remove the cover, to which the bulbs are attached. Identify the burned out one and replace it, being careful not to touch it with bare hands. Put the cover back on, reattach the electrical connector and then put the headlight back in place, and that's it!
