How to Easily Remove the Front Headlights from the Fiat Punto

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

If you want to remove the front headlights from your car but don’t know how, just follow these steps. Since these are electrical components, it’s essential to disconnect the battery and ensure the engine is off before you start. Once done, put on gloves and lift the front bonnet. Locate a small white plastic block inside the engine bay near the headlights. Pull the outer metal tab to unlock the indicator headlights. Remove them by pulling 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 spanner, remove the metal spring around the connector and disconnect it from the headlight to free it completely.
