Skoda Octavia - Video tutorial

Model: Skoda Octavia 1U, MK 1 - Years 1996-2004
Part: Headlight bulb
Operation: Headlight bulb replacement

To replace the headlight bulb it is not necessary to remove the headlight from its seat: once the front hood is open, even if it is very narrow, there is space to put your hand in and unhook the indicator lamp holder (just rotate it ); at this point, extract the old bulb (bayonet coupling) and insert the new one. Before reassembling the lamp holder in its seat, it is advisable to check the operation of the bulb itself; once you are sure of correct operation, complete the installation by repositioning the lamp holder in its seat in the spotlight. As for the rear light bulbs, it is sufficient to move the carpet covering and unhook the complete lamp holder and then replace the bulbs (always with bayonet coupling).
