See how to replace the front headlight bulbs on your car. Remove the headlight from the front of the car or reach behind it. Remove the cover caps to access the inside of the headlight. You will find the bulbs with metal bulb holders: pull the bulb holders out of the headlight and extract the damaged bulbs with the help of a screwdriver.

Fit the new bulbs (always the correct type and size) and insert the bulb holders back into the headlight housing. Refit the headlight to the front of the car or simply secure the cover caps.
