Removing the bulbs from the front headlamp on a Volkswagen Polo? Follow these steps. Open the bonnet by pulling the lever located at the bottom right of the dashboard and secure it. Locate the inspection cap of the headlamp (at the rear of the headlamp) and remove it. Pull out the bulb holder from the front headlamp and extract the damaged bulb using a screwdriver.

Fit the new bulb (ensure it is the correct type and size) and insert the bulb holder back into the headlamp housing. Finally, close the headlamp with the inspection cap. Repeat the same procedure for the other headlamp.

Test the correct functioning of the lights.
