Today, learn how to replace the front headlamp in the Ford Fiesta from 2002-2008. It is recommended to work with a cold engine and ensure the lights have been off for at least an hour to avoid unpleasant burns. Start by obtaining a Torx T25/30 screwdriver.

Open the bonnet and remove the plastic cover by extracting the clips. Now, remove the three Torx screws that secure the headlamp and then pull it from its housing, remembering to disconnect the power supply.

Remove the rubber cover, disconnect the wires, release the clips, and extract the burnt-out bulb. Proceed in reverse to refit the headlamp.

Check the correct positioning of the beam and you're done.
