In a few simple steps, we will see the process of disassembling and replacing the headlight bulb of the Ford Focus. First, we open the hood of the car and start removing the plastic cover of the bulb; then we disconnect its electrical connector and release the metal clip to remove it, as shown in the video.

At this point, we install the new low beam bulb, of the correct type and with the same attachment; we check the operation of the bulb before securing the plastic cover, adjusting the headlight height if necessary.
