Open and lift the bonnet. Remove the funnel that carries the windscreen washer fluid by simply pulling it upwards.

Now you need to remove the cap located at the back of the headlamp, which will give you access to the back of the bulb. Use hex keys to unscrew the bolts securing it. This will allow you to remove the bulb and disconnect it from its housing, and you can also make replacements on the other side if necessary, but you won’t need to remove the funnel for the windscreen washer reservoir.
