How to replace the fog light bulbs of the Volkswagen Polo MK5

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo 5, Polo V, MK 5, MK V, 6R - Years 2009-2017
Part: Fog lights

We can see in this video how to change the bulbs in the fog lights of a Volkswagen Polo MK5: first, we need to remove the outer frame of the headlight, which is held to the bodywork by two bolts, now clearly visible. We remove them and disconnect the electrical plug of the fog light, so that we can completely remove the headlight from its housing. By doing this, however, we will have left the bulb in place and to change it, we will need to go under the vehicle, remove the two screws holding the inner lining in place. This way, we can put our hand inside the fog light and find the connector that contains the bulb. Just remove the old one and insert the new one. Then we will put everything back in place from the outside.
