    Just an FYI Genik, it'll take at least three guys to change that rear light bulb... Watch your fingers!

    Request was for a video How To and unless somethings changed, neither the Owners Manual nor the much exalted Bentley Manual are in video form.
    Most likely, a quick Google or YouTube search will find several from which to choose.
    Good luck.

    Probably, but still im certain that certain friends will be there to help. Of course there will be "others" who will only show their worst and even laugh about it.

    Guess you don't know the guy who posed the question. You will if you hang here long enough.

    In order to do that, he'd have to be able to turn on the spigot.

    Yes, I know exactly who he is. You apparently didn't get the point of my post.
