How to replace the headlights on the BMW 1 Series.

Model: BMW Serie 1 E82, E81, E87, MK 1 - Years 2004-2013
Part: Headlight

In today's video, we will see how to disassemble the original headlights of the BMW E87 Series and related models. First, we open the front hood and remove the central part of the grille. Then, we remove the headlight clips and their connectors, and proceed with removing the units. If necessary, we can also remove the front bumper to make the work easier. We then replace them with new units that will help modernize the vehicle, and once that is done, we can reassemble everything in its place.
