How do you remove the rear headlight of the Volkswagen Tiguan?

Model: Volkswagen Tiguan 5N, MK 1 - Years 2007-2016
Part: Tail light

The removal of the rear light of the Volkswagen Tiguan is done by opening the rear hatch of the car, so that you can access the black panel next to the optical group. This panel must be detached by using a lever with an object: once the panel is removed, it will be possible to loosen the underlying screws. By doing so, the optical group can be extracted from its housing, disconnecting the connector at the back. Once the headlight is freed, it will be possible to connect the new replacement part, fixing it properly.
