The replacement of the headlights of a car, in this case a Volkswagen Polo 6r, can occur because it is broken due to an impact, or it may need to be replaced due to the cloudiness that has formed over time, or simply because it has been decided to install customized optical groups.

With this video guide, we will be able to do the work ourselves: after opening the hood, we will only need to unscrew, with a torx key of the appropriate size, the fixing screws located at the top of the headlight, grab it and slowly remove it from its seat, disconnecting the electrical power connector at the back.
