Changing a VW Number Plate Light/Headlamps - Glaikit Wee Scunner {P}
One of my number plate bulbs went on my Passat estate. I know because a kind motorist on the A6 was flashing their headlights and blowing their horn at me last night. Thought my car must have been on fire or a wheel departing at least.
Anyway I undid the screws today and , surprise surprise, the number plate had to be removed as well to get access.Replaced both bulbs while I was at it.

Replace both front dip bulbs as a precaution as well. The filaments on the Osram Silverstars were visibly eroded after two years use but they definitely give a brighter beam.
