Jaguar XK Replacing Back Light Bulb

[@christopherlathrop6641]

Thank you for this, sir! Very helpful, especially mentioning the size of the long-nose socket required to do the job. Saved me a lot of back and forth to the hardware store to get the right one.

Hi Christopher, thank you for watching and for your feedback.

Thanks for the vid, was reminding myself if there was anything else - doing this again, replaced a bulb last year and now doing the other. IMPORTANT: the long plastic skinny end of your light cluster can break easily, there are a ton of people who post about those snapping off, so once you undo the bolts and are trying to wiggle the whole light cluster free, go very slow and careful, and you can tap from the inside gently to get it to move, you don't want to put any pressure on that corner toward the front of the car. Hope this helps. Cheers

Hi, thank you for watching and for your feedback. You are correct care has to be taken when removing the light as that corner is fragile.
