Removing the Front Headlight of a Jeep Compass

Model: Jeep Compass MK 1, MK 49 - Years 2006-2016
Part: Headlight

Below, we explain how to replace the front headlight of your Jeep Compass. First, you need to detach the front bumper by unscrewing the screws from the two front wheel arches and the visible screws at the top. Once done, remove the plastic cover attached to the bumper grille. Once the headlight is free, you can unscrew the screws that secure it (to the brackets above and below), disconnect the cable connectors, and replace it with the new headlight. To reassemble everything, follow the same steps in reverse order, being careful not to overtighten the headlight securing screws to avoid breaking the supports.
