Replacing the Headlight Bulbs on a Volvo V50

Model: Volvo V50 MK 1 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Headlight bulb

Replace the front headlight bulbs on a Volvo V50. Open the bonnet by pulling the lever located at the bottom right of the dashboard and secure it with the prop. Locate the pin that secures the headlight and remove it (located on the side of the headlight). Remove the headlight from the bumper; pull out the bulb holders from the headlight and extract the damaged bulbs using a screwdriver (if they do not come out easily). Fit the new bulbs (always of the correct type and size) and insert the headlight back into the bumper housing. Refit all previously removed parts.
