Replacing a brake light-Fabia Classic

Featured Replies

I've recently bought a Fabia Classic 1.4 2001. The brake light bulb has gone... has anyone any tips for accessing the bulb to replace it? There is a red plastic panel (accessible from inside the boot) which seems to be covering the side of the rear lights but I can't get it off, I don't want to force it incase I break it. Any ideas?

Sorry if this seems a dump question.

Have a look in your owners guide, it will tell you in there.

On my fabia you just sqeeze the clips and out it pops

plus to get the bulp out you push it then turn (dont remember if it is left or right). DIY instead of asking your dealer coze he ll charge you a lot for something that ll cost him only a few cents...

You take off the panel inside the boot to access the back of the lamp.

Thanks for messages. The user guide is unhelpful. It doesn't tell me how to take the panel off.... maybe I'll just have to be a bit more forceful with it. Will have another attempt later.
