Headlight lights replacement on BMW 3

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

Are the BMW 3 Series headlight bulbs burned out? Let's see how they disassemble. We open the front hood by pulling the lever at the bottom of the dashboard, let's secure it with the rod. We raise the front hood. We remove the large headlight cover with a screwdriver (placed in the back of the headlight). We will find the bulbs with metal hooks; we take out the lamp holders from the headlight and we go to extract the damaged bulbs with the help of a screwdriver. We assemble the new bulbs and (always suitable type and size) we insert the lamp holder in the lighthouse housing. We mount the BMW headlight cover.

How to Remove the Rear Bumper on the Ford Fiesta

The preliminary operation is to detach the rear wheel arch from the bumper to access the screws underneath that secure the bumper (the wheel arch detaches by extracting the two plastic screws with a lever). Now unscrew all the screws around the perimeter of the bumper (you can see them by opening the rear hatch) and now you can detach the plastic from the bodywork by gently pulling it outwards: during this operation, be careful not to break the locking pins. Once you have extracted and replaced the bumper, you can reposition it and secure it by following the same operations done previously.
