How to replace the dipped beam bulb on the Peugeot 208 MK1?

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

To replace the dipped beam bulb on the Peugeot 208 MK1, open the bonnet and locate the rubber cover at the back of the headlight assembly. Remove it to access the bulb holder. Disconnect the electrical connector by pressing the side clip, then rotate the bulb holder counter-clockwise to extract it. The bulb is of type H7. Before installing the new bulb, avoid touching the glass with your fingers as skin oil can reduce its lifespan. Insert the new bulb into the holder, ensuring the reference notch (the small tab) is facing upwards. This ensures the correct light beam. Refit the bulb holder by rotating it clockwise, reconnect the connector, and replace the rubber cover. Check the operation by turning on the dipped beams.
