Replace the headlamp on a Toyota Rav 4. Lift the bonnet and secure it. Remove the central grille and the bodywork piece below it: there are securing screws under the wheel splash shield. After removing the covers, unscrew the securing screws of the front headlamp: remove all screws and disconnect the electrical connector located behind the headlamp.

Fit the new headlamp with new bulbs if damaged (always ensure they are the correct type and size), insert the headlamp into its housing, tighten all screws, and refit the plastic covers.
