This video shows how to remove and replace the bulb of the front headlamp in just a few simple steps. First, remove the cover that secures the headlamp mounting area, then disconnect the connector for the bulb to be replaced and simply pull it out. Next, remove the blown bulb from its socket and install a new one compatible with your car; in this case, you will need a W5W bulb.
