22 Equinox LT Upgraded Rear Tail Lights Bulbs

[exploreco]

With the really nice looking LED headlight on the front I decided to update the other halogen bulbs with Lasfit bulbs. I have started with the inner rear sections. Still waiting on the outer lights come come. Wanted to share.

4 T15R Inner
2 T15 Reverse
2 T10 License


Remove inner trim panel to access lights. Remove the light housing by removing the two circled bolts and pop the light housing out. When the light is out swap out the appropriate lights and then test before replacing the housing. Reassemble.


Licenses plate light pops out with a trim tool.

I will post additional when I get the outside brake bulbs completed this weekend hopefully. Also have some to do the front turn signals.

You may want to post this in the third generation forum (2018 - 2024 models), as there may be more members there that would find this post interesting.

Thanks for posting this. How easily did that interior lift gate panel come off? I have a pretty poor success rate removing large panels like that. I always wind up breaking a clip or two (or worse) in the process. I try to avoid them all together if it's not warm/hot out. These LED replacements do come in handy. I recently installed some similar to those E10's for the marker lights and some insanely bright Termitor Z10, H11 headlamp replacements on my little sub compact tractor. They make a world of difference for 'off road' use.

Its held up there pretty tight. I watched a YT video first to make sure I had a good idea of what I was dealing with and there are several clips holding it down. I broke one. Once I got the rear clips down it came out reasonably easy. I agree, best to do on a warmer day for sure. I got the outer brake light bulbs today so plan to put those in tomorrow along with the front. Those should be much easier.
