How to easily remove the front headlights of the Fiat Punto

Model: Fiat Punto 176, MK 1 - Years 1993-1999
Part: Headlight

If you want to remove the headlights of your car, but don't know how to do it, all you have to do is follow the following steps. As these are electrical components, it is essential to disconnect the battery and leave the engine off before starting. Once this is done, arm yourself with gloves and raise the front hood. Once this is done, put on a pair of gloves and raise the front hood. Locate a small white plastic block inside the engine compartment and near the headlights. Pull the outer metal tab to unlock the indicator lights. Remove these by pulling them towards you. Unscrew the two headlight bulbs by turning them clockwise. Also unscrew the three screws around the headlight. At this point, using a 10mm wrench, remove the metal spring around the connector and detach it from the headlight so as to free it completely.
