To change the front headlight bulbs on this car, you will need to remove the air filter box on the right side of the vehicle, as there will not be enough space otherwise. To do this, simply remove the two air inlet and outlet pipes, then lift the entire box. Now, remove the rubber cover at the back of the headlight and from there grasp the bulbs, twist them slightly, pull them out, and finally disconnect them from the respective connector.

The process is mirrored on the other side, with minor differences.
