How to remove the front headlights on the Mini Cooper?

Model: Mini Mini R57, R55, R56 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Headlight

In this tutorial we can see how to disassemble the front headlights on the Mini Cooper, an extremely simple and quick operation, to be carried out for example in case we need to replace the bulbs or the headlight itself. First of all, make sure the key is not inserted, then open the hood, locate the three fixing bolts along the perimeter of the headlight in question and unscrew them with a 10mm socket wrench. Then grab the headlight, pull it towards you and separate it from the bodywork. At this point, all that remains is to disconnect the power connector, replace the faulty element and reassemble everything.
