This tutorial shows how to replace the front headlight on a first-generation Peugeot 208, produced from 2012 to 2019. To remove the old headlight, first unscrew the three bolts securing it in place; two of these are located in the engine bay near the headlight and are easily visible.

The third bolt is more difficult to access as it is behind the bumper; to reach it, you need to remove the front wheel and the plastic arch liner.

Once the three bolts are removed, disconnect the headlight bulb wiring and then take out the headlight. Fit the new one by reversing the steps.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
