In today's video, we will see how to replace the fog light bulb (H11) on a Volkswagen Golf 7. We start the procedure by removing the plastic panel inside the wheel well to access the back of the fog light where we will find the bulb to replace, as shown in the video.

Next, we press the connector of the bulb and disconnect it by pulling it downwards.

After that, we grab and rotate the fog light bulb counterclockwise to remove it from its socket and extract it. Finally, we insert a new bulb and follow the reverse procedure to reassemble everything.
