How to Change the Headlamp Bulb in a Seat Leon?

Model: Seat Leon 1M - Years 1999-2005
Part: Light bulb

Perform this operation with the car turned off and the handbrake engaged. Avoid touching the glass of the bulbs with bare hands; if you do, clean them immediately afterwards. Open the front bonnet and remove the battery for easier access to the bulbs located underneath. Remove the bulb cover by taking out the metal clips on the sides. Extract the bulb you want to replace from its connector. Position the new bulb inside its holder, ensuring the correct orientation, push down the support and secure everything with the tab, and finally reconnect the connector.
