How to Replace the Number Plate Lights on a Volkswagen Transporter T5

Model: Volkswagen Transporter T5, MK 5 - Years 2003-2014
Part: Light bulb

This video tutorial demonstrates how to replace the number plate lights on a Volkswagen Transporter T5, following a few simple steps: purchase the bulbs (12 Volt - 5 Watt) for the number plate light from an auto parts retailer. Take a Phillips screwdriver and unscrew the fixing screws counterclockwise (be careful when removing the screws, as the lamp unit may fall); ensure you do not lose the screws or the small seals. Once the screws are removed, take out the lamp unit; if necessary, use a flathead screwdriver to pry it out. Remove the old bulb and install the new bulb in place, then reassemble everything in reverse order.

Over time, frequent use of the key's flip mechanism in the vehicle, dozens of times a day, inevitably leads to wear of the internal spring. As shown in this video, replacing the spring is quite simple and takes little time. After opening the casing halfway, first position the key, then the spring housing, and finally insert the spring into the previously mentioned housing.
