How to Change rear light bulbs
« on: 23 May 2009, 16:33 »
Don't shoot me Rhyso but I've already looked and cannot find the answer  :laugh::tongue:

I need to change one of my tail light bulbs because I think the bulb has "silvered up" inside. Can anyone provide me with an easy to follow step-by-step guide for a complete novice? Anything I should take care of also?

Thanks,
Ben.

Well, to be a little more helpful,

Open your boot and behind the light is a flap which you undo where you can then access the rear of the light cluster and unclip the plastic back to the cluster to expose all of the bulbs :)
