Volkswagen Golf Service & Repair Manual: Removing and installing cigarette lighter illumination bulb -L28-

  Note
On some vehicles, the illumination is not provided by a light bulb, but by an LED (light-emitting diode), depending on the equipment level. This LED is permanently attached to the retaining sleeve and cannot be renewed separately.
Retaining sleeves with a light bulb are available in different versions. On the one version, the light bulb can be replaced separately; on the other version, the light bulb cannot be replaced separately. In this case, the bulb carrier has to be replaced together with the light bulb.
Removing:
–  Remove socket → Chapter.
   
–  Press retaining lugs -arrows- and remove retaining sleeve together with bulb carrier.
–  Unclip bulb carrier from retaining sleeve.
