How to replace the bulb in the rear light of a Volkswagen Golf? This is a very simple operation; let's see in this video how to disassemble it. Open the boot lid, then remove the cloth covering the side trim of the boot. Unscrew the plastic securing nuts of the rear light, disconnect the power connectors attached to the light, and pull it out from its housing.

Replace the damaged bulbs with new ones once the light is removed (same voltage). Reassemble the light with the respective securing nuts, replace the inspection cover, and test the correct functioning of the lights.
