In this video, you will learn how to replace the halogen bulbs inside a Volkswagen Polo MK4 with LED bulbs. Start by removing the interior light; this is a simple operation.

Use plastic spatulas to lever up two of the four sides without scratching anything, then disconnect the connector. Do the same for the one at the back.

The LED bulb kit suggested by our YouTuber can be found on Amazon with the code B085WQ55DK: it contains 23 LED bulbs of various sizes and costs £18.99, with free delivery for Prime customers. Remove the halogen bulbs by taking off the cover at the back and replace it with the corresponding LED (remember not to touch the new bulbs with bare hands; wear disposable gloves).

Refit the interior lights and reconnect the connectors; if they do not work, simply reverse the two poles.
