Rear lamp in the Golf model, produced in July 1980. On the right - in the Jetta model: 1 - fixing bracket; 2 - lid; 3 - lamp socket; 4 - lamp housing nuts; 5 - multi-pin connector; 6 - negative cable.
The rear light bulbs can be accessed from the trunk side.
In the Golf model produced before July 1980. (see picture top left): Fold the lid fixing clamps to the side and remove the lid.
Move the fixing clamps again on both sides: carefully pull out the metal support of the lamps.
In the "Golf" model released after August 1980, in the "Jetta" model (see picture top right): Move the fixing clamps of the lamp support on both sides: remove the support.
Replacing incandescent lamps is done in a similar way. Lightly press the lamp in the socket; turn left and remove.
To replace the rear light glass, unscrew 4 nuts.
When reassembling, make sure that the brown ground cable, secured to the body of the lamp, is again connected to the body; otherwise, the lamps in the lantern will not work properly.
