How to Remove the Rear Light on a Volkswagen Sharan

Model: Volkswagen Sharan MK 1, 7M - Years 1995-2010

Removing the rear light on a Volkswagen Sharan is really quite easy. First, open the tailgate. Although not shown in the video, it is advisable for your safety to disconnect the negative terminal of the battery when working on the electrical system. Open the flap near the boot courtesy light and unscrew the screw located directly above. The light unit is held to the bodywork by that single screw, so remove the only electrical connector that connects the light unit to the system, and you will have disconnected the light. The job is already done.
