Instructions for Removing the Front Headlight

Model: Mercedes Classe C W204 - Years 2007-2013
Part: Headlight

To remove the front headlight, you need to detach the bumper: turn the front tire to access the screws securing the wheel well. Move the wheel well away from its position to remove the bumper mounting pins along the inner edge of the fender. Continue by removing the headlight from the engine compartment: disconnect the intake ducts and remove the plastic cover from the grille. Next, remove the mounting pins of the front trim and take it off; also remove the plastic cover located directly on the headlight and then take out the headlight mounting pins. Finally, detach the bumper and remove the headlight from its position by disconnecting the connectors attached to it.
