To replace the sun visor bulb on Volkswagen Golf 4 vehicles, we need to use a flathead screwdriver. Open the sun visor and insert the tip of the screwdriver into the right side of the small light.

By applying slight pressure, the light will come out; disconnect the connector to replace the bulb. After replacing the bulb, reconnect the light to the connector and insert the light back into its housing, pushing it inward.

This procedure is also applicable to Volkswagen Jetta and Volkswagen Bora vehicles.
