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

These short and simple steps will show us the process of disassembling and replacing the front headlight and bulbs of the Mini Cooper. First, we open the car's engine hood and start unscrewing the fastening screws of the headlight, which are located on the sides; then we disconnect the electrical connector of the bulbs to remove the optical group, as shown in the video. At this point, if necessary, we replace the low beam or high beam bulb, replacing the entire front headlight if necessary; then we reassemble everything, applying the reverse process!
