For the vehicle in question, the clips are fixed to the front bonnet: therefore, once you have opened and lifted the bonnet, there is enough space to carry out both the bulb replacement and the possible disassembly of the headlamp itself. The headlamp retaining nuts are easily accessible if you wish to remove the entire headlamp; if you only want to replace the bulbs, simply unclip the protective covers (one with a metal clip and the other with a bayonet fitting) to access the bulbs directly and replace them by disconnecting the power connector and pulling them out of their housing.
