Let's replace the headlight bulbs on a BMW 5 Series. Start by removing the plastic cover located at the bottom of the bumper using a suitable screwdriver to access the side fog light in the bumper.

Remove the damaged bulbs and install new ones (same size and voltage). Reinstall the plastic cover under the car's bumper with the associated screws after replacement.

Test the lights to ensure they function correctly. Perform this replacement on both front headlights to maintain consistent lighting.
