We illustrate in a generic way how to disassemble the front headlight of an Audi car, specifying that the vehicle used in the video is an Audi A3 8v. In order to access all the pins to be removed, lower, side and rear, it is necessary to remove both the front bumper and the wheel arch.

We start with the upper section of the front grille, then move on to the aforementioned bumper and wheel arch, ending with unscrewing the locking pins of the headlight.

Now that we have freed it, we pull it outwards, but don't forget to disconnect its rear connector of the cables that power it.
