How to Remove the Headlights on a 2001 Fiat Punto

Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011
Part: Headlight

To remove the entire front headlamp on this model, follow these instructions. Undo the three bolts in the wheel arch that support the bumper on both sides, and after opening the bonnet, also undo the two central bolts that attach it to the chassis. Now widen the chassis on the side of the headlamp to access the three bolts that anchor the headlamp to the chassis. You can now remove it, taking care with the cables before pulling it away. Disconnect the cable connectors, and you can remove the clips that hold the bulbs in place for replacement if necessary. If needed, the video also shows how to further disassemble the headlamp for repairs or replacements.
