The front headlamp of the BMW Z3 is secured by four screws. However, these are not accessible until you open the bonnet from inside the cabin.

Use a suitable spanner to remove these four screws, three of which are immediately visible while one is more hidden. Once removed, disconnect the electrical connectors and pull the headlamp outwards to detach it from its housing.

Now that the headlamp is removed from the vehicle, you can take the opportunity to clean it, change the bulbs, or customise and polish it.
