Headlight Replacement for BMW X3

Model: BMW X3 MK 2, F25 - Years 2010-2017
Part: Headlight

Pull the lever next to the pedal assembly to release and lift the hood (use the prop rod). To remove the front bumper, you need to unscrew both the Torx screws located above it and the lower screws (lift the car with a jack, or you won't be able to do it). Now unscrew the Torx screws located in the wheel well. At this point, simply detach the bumper by pulling it with your hands and removing it from its position, remembering to disconnect the connectors as you remove it. Once this is done, it will be easy to unscrew the headlight mounting screws and remove the headlight for replacement.
