To replace the front headlight bulb on a first-generation Citroën C3, open the bonnet and locate the rear of the headlight unit. Remove the rubber or plastic protective cover to access the bulb.

Disconnect the electrical connector from the bulb holder and release the clip holding the bulb in place. Remove the faulty bulb without touching the glass.

Insert the new bulb into the same housing, securing it with the clip and reconnecting the electrical connector. Replace the protective cover, close the bonnet, and switch on the headlights to check that the bulb functions correctly.
