Replace LED Headlamps on Mercedes SLK

Model: Mercedes Slk R170, MK 1 - Years 1997-2004
Part: Tail light

Replacing the headlamps on a Mercedes SLK is quite straightforward. Access the boot and remove the tool bag from the side. Locate the three bolts securing the lighting unit to the vehicle. Using a spanner, loosen the nuts and proceed to remove them by hand if they come off easily to save time. Now disconnect the lamp connectors and move to the other side. Here, the screws are hidden behind a plastic cover with a maintenance slot. Follow the same steps and you’re done.
