Replace Headlight Bulbs on BMW 3 Series

Model: BMW Serie 3 E91, E90, E92 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Headlight bulb

Are the bulbs in your car damaged? Let’s see how to remove and replace them on a 3 Series. Use a suitable screwdriver to remove the plastic cover at the bottom of the splash shield to access the side headlight located in the bumper. After removing the bulb holder, disconnect the damaged bulb and replace it with a new one (same size and voltage). Reinstall the plastic cover under the car's splash shield with the securing screws. Test the proper functioning of the bulb (enter the vehicle and activate the control lever). If it does not work, check the installation.
