Hey everybody,

I've been trying to track down a left brake light bulb, but I'm having a helluva time finding anything else other than the full tail light assembly. It would also be a great help if you could point me in the direction of a site where I could find step-by-steps on how to replace the bulb itself (or the full tail light assembly, if individual brake bulbs aren't available).

Thanks a lot for your help.

 

I don't have a pic handy but the bulb replacement is very simple as I recall. Open trunk and remove or unscrew 4 **** style fasteners holding carpet which conceal tail light assembly. Press down two plastic retainers and pull away assembly to gain access to bulbs. Replace burnt bulb.

 

Any autoparts store like autozone or checker will have the bulbs. Very simple to replace bulbs and tail lights you'll figure it out.

 

Thanks so far guys... sounds simple enough.

Now I'm having a hard time finding the bulb... is there a specific A4 brake light bulb or are these things generic?

Thanks again.

1,Get a screwdriver and pop the plastic clips out. Should be 2 of em
2,Get a size 8 ring spanner & undo the nuts. 4 in total & unplug the rectangular plug in the back of the unit.
3,Gently pull housing out
4,Pop the rear plastic unit off. Will require pressing down plastic 2 tabs Careful here this has 4 bulbs attached to it & one mini globe which you need to twist to remove.
5,Remove faulty globe by pressing down on it and twisting to the right (i think) and pulling up.... Sometimes they get a bit sticky. Don't be shy, these globes are pretty tough & hard to break. Still, if your uncomfortable, use a hand towel.
6, Replace Faulty globe, re-assemble & carefully replace tail light, plug in again & there you have it. Get stuck. PM me.
