I would also consider to take off boot badge button and give it a good clean up. I did it recently and found a way too much mud under the badge rubber sealing ;)
Hi, maybe you could do a video about fixing the rear trunk not rising that 2 inches when unlocked. It would be very helpful and I didn't see anything on the web about this problem ;)
I have a water leakage problem, when after a rain the door (trunk) is full with water, I mean really full, when I open it a bucket-load of water is rushing out of all holes on the lower edge of the door. I suspected that it's through the rear wiper's hole which is covered by a rubber seal. I have changed it to a newer model now (following one of your previous videos), but didn't help. Now I noticed that the left rear light's plastic is broken on the top edge (has many little cracks) and after a rain water is visible inside, so I plan to change it to a new one. Hopefully your video helps again. But here is the question: can it be that the water gets into the trunk's inside through the broken lamp? At least that's what the mechanics suggested today. But now checking your video I don't see any connection with the inside of the door and the place where the lamp sits. Is it possible? Update: I have taped over the upper edge of the lamp to see if it helps with the water leakage. After a night's rain the trunk is again full with water. So it's going inside somewhere else....
Thanks for the vid. Question.. Since the DLR lights can be bright and mask the front turn signals, I have ordered front turn signal LED's. When ordering the rear LED's the seller said that they most likely won't work on the Giulietta. It seems really difficult to find rear turn signal LED's that don't crew up the canbus or fast blinking. Do you know any rear turning light LED's that work on the Giulietta?
Depends on how it’s ‘broken’. If the unit itself is damaged then likely, but have you confirmed it’s not a cabling fault to it? Is power getting to it? All the best 👍
Hi. Are you sure it’s the light and not the wiring loom? More often than not it’s the loom between the boot lid and body. I’m not sure if the plugs on both left and right sides are the same, but if you can, I’d try and test the unit first before replacing it. All the best 👍
Hi Tony I have a heap of dead bugs trapped inside the boot trunk lights in the corners closest to where it meets the other rear lights. How would you recommend the best way to get them out without ripping them open?
Hi David. I guess it depends on how stuck they are. Have you considered blasting through the bulb holes with a hairdryer or something to dislodge them, and then a hoover? Let me know. All the best 👍
@Valentin Čartolovni lol I did something silly but it worked I removed them, opened then up at the back a little then took my leaf blower wedged still while aiming it around the back of the lights with them in my hand to funnel the air to flush the bugs out lol
Thank you for the video Tony! Very helpful and informative, just fixed my rear lights today. All the best! 👍
Hi Philip. Good to hear.
P.S. that’s my line 😉
All the best 👍
Thank you for this. Was wondering how to take then out. Massive help
Viva Giulietta!
Excellent video as usual 👍

Hi Mike. Probably a very good shout.
All the best 👍
Thanks for the video, but strictly speaking, no need to remove the entire inside plastic cover, just remove the small hatch & do everything from there
U r best🙏🙏🙏

You don't need to remove all that to get to the bolts. Just take off the smal covers with a flathead.
A lot more challenging to film and show everyone though. Thanks for watching. All the best 👍
nice informative video, many thanks. I'm just about to replace my rear outer lens do you have any tutorials on that part please ?
Hi, not specifically on that part I’m afraid. Sorry. All the best 👍

Quite possible through the rear wiper hole. That’s the largest exposed cavity. All the best 👍

Afraid not. I know some people have managed to fit resistors in the circuit to make them work, but can’t help with that I’m afraid. All the best 👍
The strip light is broken on mine, would I need to replace the whole unit ? Thanks
Depends on how it’s ‘broken’. If the unit itself is damaged then likely, but have you confirmed it’s not a cabling fault to it? Is power getting to it? All the best 👍
If that led light is not working do we change the whole. Light is there a way please it's urgent

@@vialettotony that's a good idea will give it a go. Your video was a huge help
Hi, i have same issue with mine, did you get them out and how? Thank you!
@Valentin Čartolovni lol I did something silly but it worked
I removed them, opened then up at the back a little then took my leaf blower wedged still while aiming it around the back of the lights with them in my hand to funnel the air to flush the bugs out lol
So you need to take the whole light off to change the light bulb?
No. It’s possible through the opening by removing the access panel piece. Hope that helps. All the best 👍
Mine stop working the led bulbs. Do I need to change the whole unit or can I buy just the bulbs??
Hi Manoloplos. The led’s are soldered on so it will be easier to change the unit in my opinion. Hope that helps. All the best 👍
