Learn how to fit the headlight bulbs on a Citroen C5. Open the front bonnet (pull the lever located at the bottom right of the dashboard) and secure it with the prop. Locate the inspection cap of the headlight (located at the rear of the headlight) and remove it. You will find the bulbs with metal clips; pull the bulb holders out of the headlight and extract the damaged bulbs 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 all the previously removed pieces.
