Operation: How to remove or replace the headlight on VW Golf MK5

As usual, the first thing to do for mechanical or bodywork maintenance operations on cars is to immobilize the car on a plane or on the deck. Once this is done, to remove the headlight block of the Volkswagen Golf, let's start by removing the grille mounted on the nose. To do this, we open the hood of the engine compartment and release the clips that hold it in place. Let's start with the 2 clips that are on the upper edge (as shown in the video images) that we must press to, then, pull the grid out and, after, we continue to unlock the other clips along the perimeter of the grid. Now, using the appropriate key, unscrew the screws that lock the headlight block in place. Two in the upper part of the nose, located in the areas illustrated in the video images and one below the lighthouse, reachable from the hole occupied by the small grid under the lighthouse itself. Finally, after disconnecting the power supply, we can remove the headlight block from its housing.
