To replace the front headlight on a Peugeot 206, open the bonnet of the vehicle and locate the mounting points of the headlight unit at the top of the engine bay. Disconnect the electrical connector at the back of the headlight by pressing the safety tab. Next, unscrew the screws or bolts securing the headlight to the bodywork using an appropriate spanner or screwdriver.

In some versions, it may be necessary to slightly loosen the front bumper to free the headlight unit.

Once all fixings are removed, gently pull the headlight out of its housing. Position the new headlight unit correctly, reattach the fixings, and reconnect the electrical connector.

Finally, turn on the lights to check the proper functioning of the headlight and verify the alignment of the beam.
