How to Remove the Headlights of a Volkswagen Jetta

Model: Volkswagen Jetta MK 6, A6 - Years 2010-2018
Part: Headlight

This brief video guide shows how to remove the front headlights of a sixth-generation Volkswagen Jetta, produced from 2010 to 2018. First, remove the front bumper by unscrewing all the screws holding it in place, located at the top, bottom, and in the two wheel arches. Once the bumper is removed, use a T13 Torx spanner to unscrew the four screws securing the headlight: one at the front, one at the back, and two positioned above it. After this, disconnect the headlight wiring, and finally remove and replace the headlight.
