How to change the headlight bulb of the Opel Astra

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra J - Years 2009-2016
Part: Headlight bulb

Today we will see the information on how to disassemble and replace the headlight bulb of the Opel Astra. First, we open the car's hood and start removing the plastic cover located on the back of the headlight assembly; then we disconnect the electrical connector of the lights, removing the bulb, as shown in the video. At this point, we replace and install the new low beam bulb, of the right type and with the same connection; we check its operation before fixing it on the front headlight, finally reassembling the cap and adjusting the headlight height if necessary.
