Changing the vehicle bulbs requires considerable technical skill. Therefore if you do not feel confident with the procedure, Volkswagen recommends having the bulbs changed by a Volkswagen dealership or other professional assistance. You must contact a qualified workshop if other vehicle parts around the lights need to be removed or gas discharge lamps need to be replaced.
Store spare light bulbs in the vehicle for safety-relevant lights. Spare bulbs are available from Volkswagen dealers. In some countries you are required by law to have these spare bulbs in the vehicle.
It may be illegal to drive with a defective bulb in the exterior lighting.
You can change the following bulbs yourself:
All other bulbs and lamps in the vehicle should always be changed by an expert.
Additional bulb specifications
Some bulbs in headlights or in tail light clusters might have factory specifications that are different to standard bulbs. The designation is inscribed on the bulb, either on the glass part or on the base.

WARNING
