This video shows how to replace the front headlight bulbs on a Ford Fiesta. You will need a T20 Torx and a flat screwdriver.

First, open the bonnet and secure it, then use the flat screwdriver to remove the two retaining screws located on the sides of the headlamp. Once removed, use the screwdriver to take out the plastic clip, disconnect the connector, and then remove the headlamp.

After removing the headlamp, take off the bulb retaining clip using the T20 Torx, then pull out the bulb and replace it. Once replaced, refit the bulb retaining clip, reconnect the connector, place the headlamp back in its housing, and reinsert the plastic clip and the previously removed retaining screws.
