Remove the front headlight from a Fiat Punto. Open the bonnet and secure it with the prop rod; remove the front bumper (screws located in the wheel arch) and undo the securing bolts above the headlight (use a socket or battery-powered screwdriver).

Disconnect the bulb holder from the headlight and extract the headlight from the vehicle body. Fit the new front headlight with new bulbs if damaged (ensure they are the correct type and size) and insert the headlight into its housing.

Tighten the headlight bolts with the socket and refit the front bumper. Test the correct operation of the front lights.
