How do you replace the front headlight bulb of the Mini R56?

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

The replacement of the front headlight bulb on the Mini R56 is done by opening the hood, so that access to the components located inside the engine compartment can be obtained: at the rear of the corresponding headlight, there will be a circular protective cover of the optical group. By removing this cover, it will be possible to access the components located inside the headlight, removing the bulb and disconnecting it from the respective power cables. At this point, it will be possible to connect the new bulb, inserting it into the headlight and verifying that the optical group is functioning.
