How to Remove the Headlight from a BMW 3 Series?

Model: BMW Serie 3 E91, E90, E92 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Headlight

To remove the headlight from a BMW 3 Series, open the hood to access the screws that secure the front bumper to its housing. These screws are located at the top of the bumper, at the bottom, and inside the wheel wells of the front wheels. Once all the screws are loosened, the bumper can be completely removed, exposing all the screws that secure the headlight assembly. Loosen these screws to extract the headlight from its housing and insert the new replacement part.
