To replace the front headlight bulb on the Seat Leon, first immobilise the car on a flat surface or place it on a ramp to work safely. Once done, open the front bonnet and, using a star screwdriver, unscrew the two screws that secure the rear cover of the headlight from which you want to replace the bulb.

Remove the plastic cover to access the back of the headlight. Remove the spring that secures the rubber cap for water and humidity protection.

At this point, you can disconnect the power supply and proceed to replace the faulty bulb.
