Before starting, open the front bonnet of your Opel Zafira. Begin by unscrewing and removing the rear cover of the blown bulb of the front headlamp.

Once done, rotate the base of the bulb anti-clockwise, and then extract it from the front headlamp. This will give you access to the blown bulb.

Proceed by disconnecting the relevant electrical connector. Once you have completed this step, the disassembly will be finished.

To fit the new bulb, simply follow these steps in reverse, and the replacement will be complete.
