How to Replace the Headlight Bulbs on a Peugeot 208

Model: Peugeot 208 A9, MK 1 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Headlight bulb

Let's see how to replace the bulbs mounted in the front headlight of a Peugeot 208: open the bonnet by pulling the lever located at the bottom right of the dashboard, secure it with the prop rod. Locate the plastic inspection cap of the headlight (located at the rear of the headlight) and remove it. At this point, you will find the bulbs with metal bulb holders: pull the bulb holders out of the headlight and extract the damaged bulbs using a screwdriver. Install the new bulbs (always of the correct type and size) and insert the bulb holder back into the headlight housing. Refit all previously removed parts.
