Great description and video. Helped me a lot, just what I was looking for. I had to replace the same bulb, and I paid $4.99 for a 2-pack at O'Reilly's. The old, original bulb was bulb #1122, and the Sylvania 7225LL is replacement for the 1122. Here's a link to Sylvania replacement bulbs for 2002 Passat -- www.osram-americas.com/en-us/applications/automotive-lighting-systems/Pages/lrgallbulbs.aspx?year=2002&qual=49&model=2973&make=112 Thanks for posting this.
has anyone found a video on how to replace the entire housing [driver's side] on a b5.5 wagon (2002 passat wagon]? someone hit it and cracked it while my car was parked and the it now needs to be replaced; thanks in advance!!
thank you for the video...i have like you in the middle 2 empty hole...are they unuseful ? because im wondering when i park where is my white light reverse one ? thank you
Big help thanks!!! only thing you didn’t mention is to get bulbs out quarter turn and they detach and to put in new ones little finicky but only goes one way but guessing this stuff is common knowledge
I change my tail light and it turn on, but now when I put in place it doesn't work anymore the regular light on top and bottom. the brake work and the turning light does well as well but not the regular, can you help me out oh any guy does not what wrong oh happen
Mario Flores it's hard to troubleshoot something like this over RU-vid. if you're still having the issue I'd recommend you pull it back out and make sure the bulb is good, that it's making good contact, and that you inserted it correctly (pushed in and twisted)
