To replace the headlight bulb on a Volkswagen Up, open the bonnet to access the components in the engine compartment. Here, locate the internal cover of the headlight, which must be removed to access the clips holding the bulb.

Disconnecting these clips will allow you to pull the bulb out of its socket, disconnecting its connector. Connect the new bulb to the connector and insert it back into the headlight unit.

After installing the cover, close the bonnet and check that everything is functioning correctly.
