How to Replace the Dipped Headlight Bulb in a Peugeot 407?

Model: Peugeot 407 MK 1 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Light bulb

The dipped headlight bulb in the Peugeot 407, like in all other vehicles, has an H1 fitting. When purchasing it, be careful not to confuse it with the H7 type, which is for the fog lights. Follow the advice from the video and aim to buy quality bulbs, not overly cheap ones, to avoid future problems. Once you have the new bulb, proceed to replace it. Lift the front bonnet and remove the headlight protection cap. Extract the bulb holder, disconnect the blown bulb, and insert the new one. Finally, reposition the bulb holder and cap before closing the bonnet.
