Instructions for Replacing the Front Headlight

Model: BMW Serie 7 MK 2, MK 3, E32, E38 - Years 1986-1994
Part: Headlight

If the headlight is broken, before proceeding with disassembly, remove any glass remnants. Then, unscrew the mounting screws located at the top of the headlight, detach the trim located just below the headlight (it is a sort of frame) to access the other two mounting screws and remove the side turn signal; at this point, using a screwdriver, slide back the tab located under the lower right corner of the headlight, which secures the headlight to the trim under the turn signal: now you can remove the headlight.
