Let’s look at removing the bulbs from a Citroen C3. Open the bonnet by pulling the lever located at the bottom right of the dashboard and secure it. Unscrew the headlight securing screws with a screwdriver, then extract the headlight from its housing and remove the inspection cover (located at the back of the headlight).

Pull out the bulb holder from the headlight and extract the damaged bulb with the help of a screwdriver.

Fit the new bulbs (always the correct type and size) and insert the bulb holder back into the headlight housing. Refit the headlight with the securing screws and inspection cover.

Test the lights to ensure they are functioning correctly.
