Replacement of Defective Front Headlight

Model: Mini Mini R53, R52, R50 - Years 2001-2007
Part: Headlight

If the headlight glass becomes cloudy, the entire unit needs to be replaced. For this operation, a socket wrench is required. Open the bonnet and unscrew the retaining screws of the headlight with the socket. Carefully remove the headlight, taking care to disconnect the cables from the connector. Once the cover is removed, take out the complete headlight assembly. Gently insert the new headlight, ensuring it fits correctly, then securely tighten the screws removed earlier and reconnect the power connector. Next, check the operation of the lamps and the correct alignment of the headlight.
