How to Replace Headlight Bulbs on an Opel Zafira

Model: Vauxhall Zafira MK 2, A05, Zafira B - Years 2005-2011
Part: Headlight bulb

Learn how to replace the headlight bulbs on an Opel Zafira. Open the bonnet by pulling the lever located at the bottom right of the dashboard and secure it with the prop. To replace the left headlight bulbs, remove the air filter box. Locate the headlight inspection cap (located at the rear of the headlight) and remove it. At this point, you will find the bulbs with metal clips; pull the bulb holder out of the headlight and extract the damaged bulb using a screwdriver. Fit the new bulb (ensure it is the correct type and size) and insert the bulb holder back into the headlight housing. Finally, close the headlight with the inspection cap and reassemble the ventilation kit.
