Need to remove the front headlight bulbs on a VW Lupo? Let’s remove and replace the bulbs. Open the bonnet of the engine compartment, and using a screwdriver, remove the securing cover located behind the headlight (right or left).

Disconnect the rear cap from its housing and replace the damaged bulbs with new ones (same size and voltage). Finally, reattach the headlight access cover.

Test the correct operation of the previously installed bulbs. Turn on the ignition and rotate the light switch.

Check if all lights on the Lupo are functioning.
