Replacement of Front Headlight Bulb

Model: Chevrolet Matiz MK 1 - Years 1998-2010
Part: Headlight bulb

To replace the front headlight bulb (H4 fitting), you need to remove the headlight itself, as there is not enough space to access it directly. The headlight removal is very straightforward. Unscrew the two securing bolts of the headlight, one at the top and one at the bottom, pull the headlight away from its housing, and disconnect the bulb's power connector. Then, remove the rubber protective cap to access the bulb holder, detach the bulb retaining spring to extract the old bulb and insert the new one. Secure the new bulb with the spring, apply the rubber cap, reconnect the power connector, and refit the headlight.
