This video will show you how to remove and replace the tail light yourself if it's cloudy, cracked, or broken
Brought to you by 1AAuto.com, your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the internet. In this video we're going to show you taillight replacement. Both replacing the bulbs or replacing the whole taillight assembly on a Focus three door. Tools you'll need are a Phillips screwdriver and that should be about it, actually.
There's a screw right here, and then, in underneath, there is a finger nut right there. You can just grab on that out with your fingers and twist it. The first thing we'll remove. The light comes out. If you're looking to replace a bulb, right up here, this turns counterclockwise and comes out. This one, same thing. Counterclockwise and comes out. To replace this whole assembly you're going to want to pull these little tabs off. There, that's off. These bulbs just pull out and I'm not sure, on this car, whether that should be a orange bulb or not. Looks a little weird. Think it should be clear. This one pulls out, goes back in.
For reinstallation, we can put our bulbs back in. Put these little harness holders back into place. Put that down in. Start our screw in. Back under here, put our thumb screw in. Don't make it too tight because as it gets older it'll tighten up more and it'll be hard to get off.
