When the dipped beam headlamp bulb on the Opel Astra blows, you must replace it as soon as possible for your safety and to avoid penalties. Rotate the wheel corresponding to the headlamp that contains the bulb to be replaced; inside the wheel arch, near the headlamp, you will find a cover secured by two clips.

Release them to access the rubber cover of the headlamp, under which you will find the electrical connector of the bulb. Turn it counter-clockwise to release the bulb and pull it out, disconnect it from the connector and replace it with a new one. Reinsert it into its housing, securing it, replace the rubber cover, and close the access flap.
