How to Remove the Front Headlight of an Audi A6?

Model: Audi A6 MK 2, C5 - Years 1997-2004
Part: Headlight

To remove the front headlight of the Audi A6, open the hood to access the engine compartment and remove the plastic cover located at the rear of the headlight. Once this is removed, loosen the screws that secure the headlight at the top and bottom; this will allow you to pull the headlight out of its housing and disconnect the connector at the back. After the old headlight is removed, install a new replacement that must be connected to the connector and secured with the screws.
