In this video we can see how to replace the headlight frame of the Mini Cooper 2007/2013: we need to lift the hood and we will see that, once the headlight is removed, we will clearly see the outline, that is the frame we want to replace. From under the hood, using a small flat screwdriver, we release the clips that hold the frame to the hood body.

We can purchase the new piece on Amazon with the code B09YHHLKTL at a price of 37.99 euros per piece, free delivery. For the insertion of the new piece we will proceed in reverse, aligning the clips and then closing them with the help of the same screwdriver.
