Is it necessary to replace a broken taillight cover?
1 Answers
From a safety perspective, a damaged taillight cover should be replaced. Driving at night with a cover that cannot fully reflect light is hazardous. If not replaced, moisture entering the cover can reduce bulb lifespan and cause circuit oxidation. Taillights can be categorized into independent, combined, and composite types. Below are the steps to replace a taillight cover: 1. Open the trunk lid. 2. Remove the trunk lining. 3. Unscrew the taillight fasteners. 4. Disconnect the taillight wiring. 5. When removing the taillight, take off the cover. 6. Remove the headlight cover, clean the adhesive and dust from the grooves, and install the new taillight.
