Following these brief and simple steps, we will see how to disassemble and replace the headlight bulb of the Saab 9-3. First, let's open the car's hood and begin by removing the plastic cover located behind the headlight; disconnect the electrical connector of the bulb and unclip the metal spring, removing the light from the optical group.

At this point, install the new low beam or high beam bulb, having the same fitting (in this case, type H7); then check the light's operation, reassembling the plastic cap and, in the case of the left light, also the tube for the windshield washer fluid reservoir.
