In this tutorial we can see how to replace the front headlights in the Hyundai Santa Fe, an extremely simple and quick operation. First of all, make sure that the key is not inserted, then open the hood, remove the indicated plastic rivets and unscrew the bolts of the upper cover with a 10mm socket wrench.

Next, unscrew the bolts inside the wheel arches, remove the lower side covers and, grabbing it from one of the two ends, separate the bumper from the frame. At this point, all that remains is to unscrew the fixing bolts of the headlights with a 12mm wrench, remove them from the housing and disconnect the power connectors.

To reassemble everything, simply follow the reverse procedure.
