Headlight bulbs burnt out? Here’s how to remove them from the car. Open the hood by pulling the lever located at the bottom right of the dashboard and secure it with the prop rod. Remove the inspection cover from the headlight (located at the back of the headlight).

Disconnect the damaged bulbs from the socket.

Install the new bulbs (always the correct type and size) and insert the socket into the headlight housing. Close the headlight with the plastic cover and close the hood.

Turn on the headlights and check if they work.
