Video tutorial

In this video, we see how to change the headlight bulb of an Opel Meriva version B: inside the engine compartment, we have ample space to do the job of changing the bulbs without having to remove the headlight. We then remove the rubber cap that protects the bulb from dust.

We lift the plastic clip that holds the bulb and the electrical connector, and pull out the bulb with its socket. The bulb unscrews with a quarter turn counterclockwise.

We replace it with a new one, remembering never to touch the bulb of a new bulb with bare hands, as we would greatly shorten its life. We give it a quarter turn clockwise and put the socket and the rubber cap back in place.
