Introduzione

After about 40,000 miles of driving, your tail lights might begin to burn out, so they must be replaced.

This guide demonstrates how to replace the tail light of a 2009-2014 Ford F150 tail light so you can maintain your own safety and the safety of those around you.

Gather your materials: A ratchet, ratchet extension, and 8mm socket to help remove and replace the bolts, a Sylvania Long Life Mini Bulb 4057LL to replace the one that is currently burnt out, and some latex gloves. Please note that latex gloves are optional but will reduce the amount of oil transferred from your skin to the bulb's surface, which could help the bulb last longer.
