In 2020, I walked cautiously to the end of the year, only thinking in my heart, thank God, thank the earth! Last Friday, when I got home, my wife smiled and said to me that she was in trouble. I was surprised at first. She said she backed up and hit the pole and the shell of the rearview mirror was broken. (later I found out that she made a mistake in her description, which should be the left taillight shade.) after hearing this, I said, if it’s not serious, let’s mix it up like this. Recently, I am really busy.
Speaking of which, she got her driver’s license in the same year as me. She picked up the car at the beginning of 2015 and has been driving for almost six years now. Over the past six years, Hongjing has stumbled along with her to protect her from the wind and rain. I do all the maintenance of Jingrui at ordinary times. Thanks to Skoda Jingrui for its excellent quality, which is reassuring! In 2020, her driver’s license was deducted by 9 points, a bit of a warning, managed to survive the end of 11 to enter a new cycle. I thought she and Jingrui could make it into 2021. Who thinks, it still happened. But I’m used to it, as long as people are all right… In the previous picture, I guess it should be a 45-degree contact rod on the left side of the rear.

She also knew that I was busy and said that she might as well drive to the street and find a store for a change. I said you can’t change it immediately when you go to the store, even the 4S store has to place an order. Sure enough, I called the 4S store and said I wanted an order for more than 400 yuan. I think it’s better to look for it on the Internet if you want to place an order and wait. One search, that’s a lot! The price is more than 130 yuan to more than 200 yuan, the so-called deputy factory, boutique parts, and original parts. Too bad, it will turn yellow after a long time, and it will not fit well with the car body, so it is easy to get into the water. I spent a long time comparing and looking at the evaluation, and finally chose two, one is Shanghai asking price 200 yuan, postage 18 yuan; the other is Changsha asking price 207.40 yuan, free delivery, and said there is a wire harness. Of course I chose the latter. It would be convenient to have a wire harness. Place the order immediately and the goods will arrive on Monday. The seller’s packaging is in place, double packing, look! flawless and perfect!

Last night, my wife drove back from work. After dinner, I began to pretend. Before, I changed the brake lights myself and knew how to remove them. Only one dollar coin is needed to disassemble the tool. After removing, pay attention to pull out the wire harness, do not leak into that hole, or you will be in trouble.

I took the original lights removed and compared them with the newly bought lights. Feel little difference, logo and parameters are the same!

When the lady finished her meal, we went to install it together, and let her go mainly to ask her to help. I plugged the wire harness of the lamp into the wire harness of the car taillight, and I needed her to hold the headlight. Hear the “da” sound in place, pay attention to the right direction.

Then I held the lamp and asked her to start the car test. Hit the brakes, turn and everything is all right. I asked her to hold the lamp again. I stuffed the wire harness back into place and pressed the rubber pad on it, mainly to prevent dust from entering the lampshade. So it’s done!

This incident tells us that this can be prevented from happening. After all, my Jingrui has a reversing radar, and I also install a rearview image. This reminds us that whether novice or veteran drivers, reversing cannot rely solely on radar and reversing images, but should look back, or even stop and get off to check the situation before and after the left. Only in this way can we reduce unnecessary rubbing.
