How to Replace the Fog Light Bulb on the VW Golf 6

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 6, Golf VI, Golf 6, 5K1 - Years 2008-2012
Part: Fog lights

You can replace the fog light bulb by accessing the light housing and removing the wheel arch cover; however, it is simpler to remove the light itself: start by uncliping the plastic trim around the light by prying along the edge to detach it. Next, locate the fixing screw for the fog light at the upper left corner; once the screw is removed, pull the light away from its housing, disconnect the power connector, and twist the bulb to detach and replace it.
