“Remove the bulb holder” is way easier said than done…
Thank you soo much! This is my first do it yourself car repair on my 2013 Golf. Don't have the funds to pay someone to do this so took it on and your video helped me so much.
Great to hear!
Very helpful, thank you. I found that the bulb holder was jammed onto the light unit and being a such a flimsy piece of sh ... er, plastic, I was afraid to exert much effort to persuade it to come off. Seeing you remove it with a simple pull gave me sufficient confidence to work it off carefully using a small screwdriver to apply just enough effort around all sides to ease it off. Straightforward apart from that. Always disappointing that a "simple" bulb replacement should be so fiddly - imagine trying to do that on a dark rainy night on the side of a motorway somewhere! From the comments, I'm not the first to find removing the bulb holder less than straightforward.
Well done!
0:45- thanks for this part in particular. I was having the hardest time trying to get the socket out of the housing, since the wire was trapped under the plastic surround. I've never owned a VW before, and none of the other cars I've owned have had lights like this. So thanks again!!
You're welcome
Thanks this video really helped
No problem!
Great video thanks very helpful
Very welcome!
Perfect!
Thanks!
Is this a joke? Dude made that look too easy. I can not pull the bulb holder out, or I feel like it’ll be destroyed
Yes, sometimes they can be reluctant to release.
Can you share any tips on how to remove the bulb holder? Im struggling with this 😢
@@misslovansa I had to lever the two bottom lugs out slightly with a VERY small screwdriver to get it to release
At halfords they could do the rear brake ! Golf 2013
What is the type of bulb used for the outboard tail light? The Globe replaced in the first half of the video.
Thanks!
According to the manual the rear tail light bulb is a 21W wedge type (W21W)
