Instructions for Removing the Front Headlight

Model: Porsche Cayenne MK 1 - Years 2003-2010
Part: Headlight

To remove the front headlight, once the hood is open, move the interior carpet near the fender to access the headlight mounting bolt (you will need a long socket wrench). Once the bolt is unscrewed, you can pull the headlight forward, disconnect the plugs, and completely remove it from its housing. To reinstall it, pay special attention to the seal along the edge of the headlight fitting snugly against the corresponding area on the body: once you are sure of the perfect fit, tighten the mounting bolt.
