In this tutorial, we will see how to replace the front headlights on a Toyota Corolla, a very simple and quick operation. First, let's make sure that the instrument panel is off, so we can work safely.

Then, we open the hood, unscrew the bolts located on the upper edge of the grille using a 10mm socket wrench, and remove the side plastic rivets. Next, we remove both the rivets accessible from the wheel wells and those located on the lower edge, unscrew the last bolts, and separate the bumper from the frame.

At this point, we just need to unscrew the three fastening bolts of the headlights, disconnect the power connectors, and install the new parts.
