How to replace the front headlight of the Volkswagen Golf

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 5, Golf 5, Golf V - Years 2003-2008
Part: Headlight

In this guide we will see the instructions that will allow us to disassemble and replace the front headlight of the Volkswagen Golf. First of all, we open the hood of the car and start unscrewing all the fixing screws located on the top of the headlight and on both sides of the front fenders, thus releasing the bumper on the sides; then we unscrew the lower screw of the headlight and disconnect the electrical connector of the bulbs to remove it, as shown in the video. At this point, we replace the bulbs or the entire headlight assembly, finally reassembling the side part of the bumper.
