Removing the headlight on BMW X3

Model: BMW X3 MK 1, E83 - Years 2003-2010
Part: Headlight

Begin by removing the front wheel on the affected light side and lifting the vehicle. Once this is done, you have to remove the bulkhead located under the engine compartment: to achieve this, unscrew the numerous 8 mm screws that secure it and remove the round plastic clips. Move the wheel arch protection and unscrew the torx t25 located here. At this point, remove the front bumper on the side area and disconnect the headlight connector. Unscrew the torx t30 placed above the front bumper and the protection placed here. Remove the front grille and then unscrew the headlight bolts.
