    Polo 9N3 Rear Tail Light Removal.

    Polo 9N3 Rear Tail Light Removal.
    There are 3 points at which the tail light is connected to the car.


    Green is the threaded shaft and the orange is the 2 fixing posts
    This is a 5 minute task needing no tools.
    The first step is to disconnect the wire loom to the light.

    The second step is to un screw the locking nut which is connected to the chassis via a grey plastic link.

    Then it’s a matter of carefully lifting up and outwards on the tail light fitting.

    Then you should be able to remove the unit.

    Thanks again for the tips. If there is one thing that the earlier model is very much worse in, it is the tail lights. It is one mod I hope to make to ours.
