Replacing the Front Headlamp Bulb

Model: Volkswagen Jetta MK 5, A5 - Years 2005-2010
Part: Headlight bulb

Open the front bonnet and remove the protective cap from the bulb holder behind the headlamp. Then disconnect the power connector and the ignition unit of the xenon bulb, which will come out with the bulb itself: the bulb is secured to the ignition unit with a ring. To replace it, detach the ring, remove the old bulb, and insert the new one, securing it again with the ring. Finally, reconnect the ignition unit with the new bulb to the headlamp, reconnect the power connector, and replace the protective cap.
