The access flap for the bulb is located inside the front wheel arch, so it is necessary to turn the wheels in the opposite direction to the headlight with the blown bulb (e.g., if you want to replace the bulb on the driver's side, turn the steering towards the passenger side).

As shown in the video, pull the two clips that hold the flap closed, open it, and remove the rubber pressure cap of the headlight.

Feel for the square-shaped connector, turn it an eighth of a turn gently, remove the bulb, and at this point, you can extract and replace the bulb and reassemble everything.
