How to Install LED Bulbs in the Front Headlight of a Citroen C5 X7

Model: Citroen C5 MK 2, RD, X7 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Headlight bulb

In this video tutorial, you can see how to install LED bulbs in the front headlight of a Citroen C5 X7: the first thing to do is purchase a pair of LED bulbs from an authorised car parts dealer. For this job, you need a T40 Torx key. To unscrew the bulb, navigate past the battery and make your way to the bulb, then insert your hand and unscrew the bulb using the T40 Torx key; at this point, the bulb should come out. Once the bulb is removed from its housing, insert the new LED bulb and screw it in using the T40 Torx key. The bulbs must be inserted correctly as they have polarity, so check if the new bulb works; if it does not, remove it and turn it 180 degrees, then reposition the bulb inside the headlight; it should work correctly at this point.
