How to Replace the Front Headlight on a BMW 1 Series?

Model: BMW Serie 1 MK 2, F20, F21 - Years 2011-2019
Part: Headlight

To replace the front headlight on a BMW 1 Series, you must completely remove the front bumper from its housing. To do this, unscrew the screws securing it from the top and those located inside the wheel arch of the front wheel. Once the bumper is detached, you will have access to the screws holding the headlight. Unscrew them completely, and the headlamp assembly can now be extracted from its housing by disconnecting the connectors at the back and replacing it with a new headlight.
