How to change the front bulbs of the Kia Ceed 2.

Model: Kia Cee D JD, MK 2 - Years 2012-2018
Part: Light bulb

Let's see how to change the headlights of the Kia Ceed 2: open the hood and locate the round plastic cover on the side of the headlight assembly, pull back the electrical connector and remove the bulb: for the high beam, push the metal retaining lever inward and, while holding it down, pull it to the right to unlock it. Then, by rotating the lever upward, we will release the bulb. For the position light, the procedure is similar; push and pull the retaining tab, and you can rotate it to remove it. Just pull it out to extract it. The turn signals are very easy to replace: grasp the plastic bulb holder, rotate it a quarter turn counterclockwise, and the bulb holder will come out easily. When we place the new bulbs in their position, be careful not to touch the bulb with bare hands.
