Yes you can. You will need a pair of pliers a thin rag one that is not to bulky. and a piece of vacuum line. like the vacuum line on your car. small. well first you need the replacement bulb get at dealership it is small. that will be the size of vacuum line you need. with the pliers carefully pull off your fan speed knob you will see the bulb back in the hole. take the vacuum line push onto the bulb twist line and pull it should pull the bulb out. then put new bulb lightly into vacuum line look at the slots where the bulb goes you will need to line up the bulb should be straight up and down. push bulb in you will feel slight click then reverse the way you turned the vacuum line to pull out just the line. and you should be good make sure the bulb lights up before you put the knob back on. good luck

Is there a heater illum bulb in a 2001 VW Beatle

Set the fan speed switch to position #2. Grab the fan speed knob and pull it straight off. It might fight you a bit, but it will come off. Once you have the knob off, lookinside the control unit and you will see the bulb. I have seen these just fall out of the socket on their own.

Need to change a tail light bulb left sideon a 2000 vw bettle

Unscrew the knob behined the light in the Boot / Trunk and the use a small screwdriver on the OUTSIDE of the light on the right handside as you look at the light in the middle on the outside. You will feel a little spring clip and as you push gently the light will pullout forward.

Some auto parts stores will change it for free if you buy the parts(bulbs) from them. Check into this before you try to change it yourself. if not check back and post again. If this helps leave feedback for others to see. Thanks

open rear hatch and look strait down on inside boot well. the plastic trim has access holes that pop out on either side just behind the lights. pop out the access cover on the side with burnt bulb, then reach inside that hole and you will fins a large plastic "wingnut", unscrew it<careful not to drop it or you'll have to take the whole boot apart to retrieve it> after removing wingnut carefully pop out lens from outside , replace bulb and reinstall after testing
