How to replace the headlight bulb on Subaru Crosstrek XV?

Model: Subaru Xv MK 1 - Years 2012-2017
Part: Light bulb

In order to replace the bulb on the Subaru Crosstrek XV, you need to open the hood to gain access to the engine compartment. At this point it will be necessary to remove the connector connected to the bulb holder at the rear of the headlight. Once the connector has been removed, the bulb and its holder can be removed. The new spare bulb can then be installed on it and both pieces can be inserted into their housing. It will then be possible to connect the connector to the support and close the hood, checking the correct functioning of the new piece installed.
