Volkswagen Golf - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf V, MK 5, Golf 5 - Years 2003-2008
Part: Rear light bulb
Operation: How to replace the reverse light bulb on a Volkswagen Golf

Let's start by opening the tailgate of the boot and moving the carpet in the vicinity of the headlight to be removed. By doing so, we will have reached the two plastic bolts that secure the light to the car. We then proceed with unscrewing and removing these bolts using a 13 wrench. Once this is done we will be able to remove the headlight from its housing just enough to be able to remove the pin. Once we have disconnected the electrical plug, we can remove the headlight and work on it without any hindrance. So let's proceed with removing the support plate of the bulbs, releasing the clips that fix it. By doing so we will have reached the light bulbs. To remove the burned out reverse light bulb we will simply have to rotate it anti-clockwise 90 degrees, and then remove it, and we will have removed the burned out bulb. To mount the new bulb and then close everything again we will simply have to follow the steps in reverse, and we will have successfully completed the replacement.
