    Hi mate i’m a bit confused, as you’re looking at it my bottom right bulb on the left rear is different from the right rear. the right rear has a different bulb as the left yet it’s in the exact same place and was wondering why that is?

    Imagine a police officer coming up right when you pull out the tail light and he says your tail light is out. No fucking shit officer, I thought I was changing a light bulb. 🤣

    Bought this car a few months ago and the bulb is gone. Looked and the securing bolt on the left it absolutely destroyed. Just got the middle of the plaatic ans the coil. For the life of me i cant unscrew it. Any tips before i brute force it and end up breaking something

      Just a pair of heavy duty vice grips to turn these will help . Or pliers .... at this stage when someone has tampered with it ...brute force is the way sadly
