Replacement of Rear Bulbs on VW Polo

Model: Volkswagen Polo MK IV, Polo IV, Polo 4, MK 4, 9N - Years 2001-2009
Part: Tail light bulb

Are the rear headlamp bulbs on your Volkswagen Polo blown? Here’s how to change them from inside the lamp. Open the boot lid, then remove the trim on the side of the boot. Unscrew the fastening screws located at the side of the lamp (plastic). Disconnect the rear lamp from its housing once all screws are removed, disconnect the power connectors, and replace the damaged bulbs with new ones (same size and voltage). Finally, refit the lamp onto the bodywork, screw in the screws, and reconnect the power connectors. Turn on the lights and test them.
