Instructions for Removing Front Headlamp

Model: Volkswagen Touareg MK 1, 7L - Years 2002-2010
Part: Headlight

Removing the front headlamp is extremely simple and does not require the removal of any other components, such as the trim or bumper. Additionally, the necessary tube key for releasing the headlamp's fastening lock is included with the vehicle's original tool kit. Access the boot and retrieve the key from the tool compartment under the load floor panel. At this point, open the front bonnet and rotate the headlamp's fastening lock anti-clockwise a little more than 90 degrees, then pull the headlamp forward. Reverse the process for reassembly.
