Replace Headlight Bulbs on the Altea XL

Model: Seat Altea MK 1 - Years 2004-2015
Part: Headlight bulb

Do you want to replace the front headlight bulbs? Let's see how to disassemble them from inside the front headlights. Lift the front bonnet of the car and locate the back of the front headlights. Remove the cover at the back of the headlight: you will find the bulbs with their holders. Pull the holders out of the headlight and extract the damaged bulbs with the help of a screwdriver. Fit the new bulbs (always of the correct type and size) and insert the holder back into the headlight housing. Close the front headlight with the plastic cover. Turn on the front headlights for a test.
