Replacing tail light on Passat B5 wagon

1K views 5 replies 4 participants last post by  Iowegian 
I've done several cars worth of rear tails on Passat wagons and at this point, I unbolt and remove the seat backs, pop off the metal trim at the bottom of the hatch and then remove the entire plastic trim piece(s) in the rear cargo area. It takes about 5-10 minutes but after that everything else is so much easier.
