Here’s how to remove a front headlamp and replace the bulbs on a Ford Ka: open the front bonnet by pulling the lever located at the bottom right of the dashboard, and secure it with the prop rod. Unscrew the securing pins of the headlamp (located at the top of the headlamp) and remove them.

At this point, you will find the bulbs with metal clips; pull the bulb holders out of the headlamp and extract the damaged bulbs using a screwdriver.

Install the new bulbs (always of the correct type and size) and insert the bulb holder into the headlamp housing. Reassemble all previously removed parts.
