How to replace the front headlight bulb of the Audi A3

Model: Audi A3 MK 2, 8P - Years 2003-2013
Part: Headlight bulb

Today's information will allow us to disassemble and replace the low beam and high beam bulb of the front headlight of the Audi A3. First, we open the hood and start removing the plastic cover protecting the bulb; then we disconnect its electrical connector to remove the bulb along with the bulb holder, as shown in the video. At this point, we replace the bulb with the new one, of the correct type (in this case, with an H4 socket); then we reassemble the bulb holder and check the correct functioning of the bulb, finally fixing the plastic cap.
