Let's see how to remove the interior light from a Volkswagen Golf Mk5: use a screwdriver to pry between the light and the headlining panel (without breaking anything), pull the light (glasses holder) out of the panel and disconnect the power connector.

Replace the damaged bulb with a new one (same size and voltage).

Reassemble the light in its housing along with the glasses holder (push the transparent plastic with your hands until the tabs lock into the side plastic). Test the correct functioning of the light after reassembly.
