How Do You Change a License Plate Bulb on a VW Golf - Replace VW MK7 Golf GTI Number Plate Bulbs
Philips License Plate Bulbs: amzn.to/3NPPN5N
Sylvania License Plate Bulbs (10-pack): amzn.to/3wFYmdj
One of the license plate bulbs went out on my 2016 GTI Mark 7. And in this video I'll show you how to easily replace the license plate bulbs yourself! On my car it's the right side that needs replacing. And these housings pop out pretty easily by pressing on the small tab. There's not much slack on the wiring but twist the lens cover counterclockwise and it'll slide right off.
I have regular tungsten bulbs installed here. So I'm going to replace them with new Philips side marker bulbs. To replace the old bulb, just pull it straight out. Then line up the contacts and push the replacement bulb in. Now I can slip the cover back on and it's all done! But I definitely want to check that it's working. I've heard of people switching to LED bulbs here but it's possible those can cause a license plate bulb warning on the dashboard. So for now I'm going with exact replacements.
Hopefully you can see how easy to change the license plate bulbs yourself! If this video was helpful please give me a thumbs up and hit the subscribe button to stay up to date on all my weekly videos!

Hey just a question I have no idea what any of the fuses are in my 2015 golf gti. It does not have a diagram on what is what and nothing in the handbook. Could you let me know where I could find it?
