Do you want to change the bulb inside the front headlight of a Kia Rio? Here’s how to remove the damaged bulb. Lift the front bonnet, locate the headlight inspection cap and remove it to access the bulbs.

Once the headlight is uncovered, you will find the bulbs with metal clips; pull the bulb holders out of the headlight and extract the damaged bulbs with the help of a screwdriver. Install the new bulbs (always the correct type and size) and insert the bulb holder into the headlight housing.

Close the headlight with the cover cap after replacement.
