To remove the front headlamps, first remove the front bumper. For this operation, refer to many of our other tutorials where we detail this process.

Briefly, you need to remove the bolts and clips that secure it at the top (engine bay side), underneath, and in the wheel arches. Then, simply unscrew the bolts that secure the headlamp to extract it, remembering to disconnect the connector while doing so. Proceed in reverse for fitting the new headlamp.

Good luck!
