How to Replace the Front Headlight on the VW Golf 7

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf VII, MK 7, Golf 7 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Headlight

Replacing the standard headlight with a LED type will make the front of the vehicle much sportier and more appealing, adding a modern touch to an otherwise new vehicle. This replacement obviously requires removing the headlight: start by fully steering the wheels inwards to easily unscrew the fixing screws of the wheel arch cover, then unscrew the fixing screw of the bumper and detach it from the edge of the wing to access the side fixing screw of the headlight. At this point, open the bonnet, remove the front trim, and complete the removal of the headlight.
