Model: BMW X5 E70 - Years 2007-2013
Part: Headlight

Today we will see the necessary instructions for disassembling and replacing the front headlight of the BMW X5 and X6. First, let's open the car hood and start unscrewing all the screws located at the top, also removing the clips; we will remove the front wheels by lifting the car and disassembling the wheel arches (also removing the plastic clips and screws), as shown in the video. At this point, gently detach the bumper by unscrewing the screws of the headlight assembly to remove it (disconnecting the light connector); let's replace it with the new one, reassembling everything.
