How to replace the front headlight bulbs on an Opel Astra. Open the front bonnet by pulling the lever located at the bottom right of the dashboard; secure it with the provided prop.

Locate the inspection cover of the headlight (located at the rear of the headlight) and remove it from the engine bay. At this point, you will find the bulbs with metal clips; pull the bulb holders out of the headlight and extract the damaged bulbs with the help of a screwdriver.

Install the new bulbs (always of the correct type and size) and insert the bulb holder back into the headlight housing.

Reassemble all the parts removed earlier.
