Let's see how to remove the rear headlight of a VW Polo. Lift the boot to access the inside of the boot space, then find the trim on the side. Unscrew the securing nuts located at the side of the rear headlight; once the rear headlight is free from any constraints, detach it from the bodywork (disconnect the relevant power connectors).

Replace the headlight and any damaged bulbs with identical parts of the same size and voltage. Once the headlight with bulbs is refitted, test the operation of the parts.
