How to replace the bulb of the Mercedes SLK

Model: Mercedes Slk MK 2, R171 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Headlight bulb

Today we will explain how to replace the headlight bulb of the right front headlight of the Mercedes SLK model R171. To perform the replacement, we need to remove the right front wheel. After removing the wheel, we proceed with the removal of the fender, unscrewing all the screws on the sides. Once we have access to the headlight bulb cap, we remove it and proceed with the replacement of the bulb. Once the new bulb is installed, we can connect it to the connector, close the headlight bulb cap, and reassemble the fender. We insert the wheel and proceed in the same way for the replacement of the bulb in the left front headlight.
