Replacing the front headlight bulb is quite simple as there is enough space to manoeuvre once the bonnet is open, and there is no need to remove the headlight. Locate the bulb holder in the headlight, turn the holder anti-clockwise to release it and extract the bulb; then disconnect the power connector and subsequently the bulb holder from the back of the bulb itself; proceed in reverse by attaching the bulb holder to the new bulb, connect it to the headlight by turning it clockwise until you hear a click confirming correct insertion, and reconnect the power supply.
