Is the rear headlamp of your Volkswagen Golf 4 damaged and needs replacing? Here’s how to remove it. Open the boot lid, remove the side fabric cover, and access the back of the headlamp. Using a socket wrench, unscrew the securing nuts located at the side of the rear headlamp.

Once the rear headlamp is free from any constraints, disconnect it from the body (unplug the relevant power connectors). Replace the headlamp and damaged bulbs with identical size and voltage parts.

Fit the new headlamp, screw in the securing nuts, and reconnect the bulbs.
