Removing the front headlight is extremely simple and requires no special precautions. Once the bonnet is open, disconnect the headlight power connector, unscrew the four fixing bolts (one at each corner), and pull it out of its housing.

Before installing the new headlight, check the alignment of the bushings through which the fixing bolts pass. Then insert the new headlight into its housing, tighten the fixing bolts, and reconnect the power.

If you are replacing the headlights due to yellowing, consider the possibility of having them refurbished.
