Bulb Replacement and LED Light Installation

Model: Toyota Rav 4 MK 3, Xa30 - Years 2006-2013
Part: Headlight bulb

To replace a faulty bulb or to install LED bulbs, first remove the plastic panel near the bonnet catch. There are two types of clips to release. Some can be released by pressing on them, while for others, you need to disengage the central element before removing the actual clip. Now that the panel is removed, rotate the bulb holder anti-clockwise to free it from its housing. At this point, change the bulb and reassemble everything. If you wish to install LED lights, you will obviously need to replace the original bulb holder. Connect the kit's bulb holder to the regulator and reassemble everything, checking for correct operation. Secure the regulator to a flat, clean surface using double-sided tape. Finally, reattach the protective panel. Car model: Toyota RAV4
Year: 2005-2012
Required tools: flathead screwdriver.
