Replacing rear lights
I have an intermittent issue with my rear LED light, drivers side. It has a small crack in the plastic casing and every now and then I will have a an issue pop up on the dash saying there is an issue with the right indicator. This normally happens just after i've had the car washed or when its been raining really heavily. The lights still work but I have an MOT due in a few weeks would rather not fail due to this. My question is, does the rear light need coding through Xentry or can I change it myself without the need to have it coded?

Amazon, Ebay or Aliexpress have many aftermarket tail lights. It's an easy install and should be plug and play. No coding or errors.
Do you have a Base or Sport C300? Look online.
