Video tutorial

Let's see how to remove the front headlights of an Alfa Romeo 159. Open the bonnet and using a Torx 30 key, unscrew the four screws above the central bracket in front of the radiator. Using the same key, unscrew the screws under the edges of the bumper at both ends.

With an 8mm socket, unscrew the screws on the edge of the wheel arch, and starting from the edge of the wheel arch, detach the front bumper by releasing it from the retaining clips. Using a cross screwdriver, unscrew the small central grille, disconnect the headlight washer pipe if present, and plug it with a screw, then disconnect the fog light connector.

You can now remove the bumper and take out the headlights by unscrewing the three screws that secure them with the Torx 30 and disconnecting the two connectors. Once the necessary operations are completed, reassemble everything by reversing the steps.
