Passat 2011 replace DRL Daytime running light at bumper step by step

2014 VW Passat B7.Followed your instructions to remove the surround I too had a bit difficulty in getting it of. On replacing study the grips I found that working in reverse inner two grips go in first the the rest will fall inline leaving Two longer grips which can be persuaded with a thin 1inch blade paper scraper. No fancy tools needed . Thank you Stephen. Happy days again here in Sunderland England .... : )

Thank you, very helpful. On my first attempt I wasn't too sure how hard to pull on the plastic trim but after watching your video I gave it another go and it came off. Thanks again.

Hi. It's much easier going at it from the wheel arch side, take out the 2×T25 screws and once you pull the cover aside you can remove the bulb from the back of the housing. Less hassle and no worries about scratching the paintwork! 👍

Thanks for the video. I found it easier doing the two torx screws in the wheel well and coming in from behind in the end.

Thank you for help. I watched the filming until the end and seeing how the protection (plastic ornament) was reassembled, I realized that it is easier to disassemble from the inside (left in this case) of the ornament and not the outside (right). That's what I did and I managed to disassemble it with my bare hand, without the plastic rod. See how the ornament was reassembled and you will understand what I mean. 😀

Thank you just what I needed as the manual was very vague

[michaelforsmark]

Just what I needed. Thanks for the video.

Thanks for sharing, saved me a lot of time and effort.

Much easier doing separating the ones in the middle of the car first....then pivot the outer ones out like a hinge.

[patward]

Thanks, mate, your technique is way better than going in through the wheel arch!

(In my case, because the wheel arch torx screws appeared to be damaged and seized.)

Great Video and made a tricky task very simple - well done Stephen !!

I watched this today and sorry but what a waste of time… I was wincing at the noises when the trim was being pulled off and thought, surely there is an easier way…. Directly behind the unit, remove 2 torx bolts from the inner wheel arch covers, peel those back and remove the bulb…. This video is time in my life I will never get back

Actually you need to start at the inside of the trim and work outwards towards the end of the bumper when removing.

Cheers for that. I did the same except I removed it from the other side having watched this

Thats good and bad thing about german cars they are built solid so they having this premium feeling inside and outside but demontage of any part can take forever

Mine has blown the front right daytime light twice in the year I've owned it. Any ideas?

[jimosullivan]

I always grease those pesky clips on everything I take apart. Really makes a difference when doing it again and also re-assemby.

[danygentleman]

Wasn't easy to change it from the wheel, where it is the plastic protection?

[spajderman]

Bad tip dont pull fog grill from that side

Спасибо за видео, все понятно, но, полез и решётку в одном месте, всё таки сломал.
