How to Replace the Front Headlamp on the Opel Vectra

Model: Vauxhall Vectra Vectra C, MK 3 - Years 2002-2008
Part: Headlight

To replace the front headlamp assembly, proceed as follows: use a socket spanner to unscrew the fixing screws of the wheel arch liner next to the headlamp. Open the bonnet and locate the four screws securing the grille and bumper; unscrew them and remove the grille. Next, remove the two screws that secure the headlamp assembly at the back and the screw that supports the headlamp at the bottom. At this point, the headlamp assembly can be removed, but not before disconnecting the rear connector. Then, reverse the process to reassemble all components.
