How to Change the Headlight Bulb on a BMW X6

Model: BMW X6 MK 1, E71 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Headlight bulb

Let's see how to remove the headlight bulb from a BMW X6: open the hood by pulling the lever located at the bottom right of the dashboard, and secure it with the prop rod. Locate the inspection cap of the headlight (located at the back of the headlight) and remove it. At this point, you will find the bulbs with metal clips; pull the bulb holders out of the headlight and extract the damaged bulbs with the help of a screwdriver. Install the new bulbs (always the correct type and size) and insert the bulb holder into the headlight housing. Reassemble all the previously removed parts.
