To replace the front headlight bulb on the Lotus Elise, loosen the screws securing the front wheel corresponding to the bulb to be replaced. Once the wheel is removed, loosen the screws securing the inner wheel arch lining.

This will allow you to loosen the screws holding the headlight in place, completely removing it and disconnecting the connectors inside. After removal, you can pull out the bulb, replace it with a new one, and reassemble all previously removed components.
