How to Remove the Front Headlamp of a Renault Clio

Remove the front headlamp of a Renault Clio. Open the bonnet by pulling the release lever and secure it; using a battery-powered screwdriver or a screwdriver, undo the securing bolts located at the top of the bumper. Once the screws at the top are undone, remove the splash guard bolts and finally remove the bolts at the bottom of the bumper. Carefully detach the bumper from the body of the vehicle. At this point, disconnect the headlamps from the body (undo the securing bolts) and the bulb holder from the headlamp.
