Replacing headlights on a BMW 528i

Model: BMW Serie 5 F11, F10 - Years 2010-2017
Part: Headlight

Removing the headlights on this car is a long but not difficult process. Let's start by opening the hood, removing the gaskets under which are the screws that secure the plastic post that covers the entire frame and housing of the headlight. Once this is done, we will be able to remove the under-wheel to gain access from the inside. Now we have access to all the screws that lock the headlight in place and after having removed them we can proceed to remove the headlight itself, but not before having disconnected the headlight cable connectors and having removed the bumper from its anchorage with the side part of the car body.
