The C1 / 107 / Aygo triplets don't exactly have the best headlights in the world, so we use these Osram H4 bulbs in ours. They would be even worse with cheap bulbs:

I’m a 27 year old woman who knows practically nothing about cars with a dad who knows even less, and you just learned me how to change my light bulbs, successfully so. I can’t thank you enough for the very easy to follow instructions. Thank you, I managed to do something to my car by myself, thanks to your help!
You learned, he taught!
Simply the best video on this subject around. The only one who got the metal clip on camera properly.
Thanks!
It’s the clip!, the clip! clear display for sliding off the clip, best vid ever! Thanks
I've got an action cam that's not much bigger than a matchbox. It enables me to get in tight spaces like this. 👍
You are a life-saver! Since yesterday my Citroen C1 head light one side is not working and need to change. I was running around city go to 3 of Car work shop but NON of them will do it for me as they said they have no time. Police start to control all car on the street and catch all cars that not in order (example light missing etc.) One shop told me that I should try to change it by myself .. Only question is HOW? So I brought Bulb from their shop and watching your video which is very very clear explanation and here we go! Done in just 10mins. I live in Germany so I want to say a big Thanks to you , much appreciated for your absolute useful video. Thank you so much.
Thanks OneWorld. Yes, the Police look out for that sort of thing here in UK too.

This guy is really good ! ... was just about to dismantle the wing to replace the nearside headlight bulb after watching other videos ... then after watching this ... changed it in about a minute !!!
Wow! Thanks Bob. Welcome aboard.
Yeah, it's the same with the Saab (see my video) - even the service manual says to take the headlight out, which in turn means removing the front bumper!! Just the sort of 'urban myth' (read: bullshit) I try to cut through
I'm still thinking about removing the unit. I've got big hands and it's almost impossible on the driversite. NL car.
I've been fiddling with this for an hour now.. But thanks to you, the fix took 5-7 minutes!! Thank you so much!
Thanks. Welcome aboard
Thank you so much Cyd. This really helped me change the headlight bulb, and it was easier than I had thought despite not being able to see everything.
I used a dental mirror as someone had suggested somewhere and my cellphone flashlight. For me, I still had a rubber protection thingie attatched which needed to be pulled out, it was a bit tight but came back in really easily.
For the clip, it wasn't just to push it back in for me, that bit was actually a bit difficult, and I had to use the mirror and slide it to the one side while pushing into the clip.
I am writing this in case someone else finds it a bit challenging. The mirror part really helps to see exactly how the clip is constructed and how the thing metal wire thing goes into it, though I probably should have used a larger mirror.
Awesome. Thanks for sharing
I wish I had seen this video a long time ago, before I had to disassemble half the car to find out what you so well showed in this video, and before cutting up my hands trying unsuccessfully to fiddle those H4 bulbs into place...😅
i tried doing this a few years back using another guide on youtube but it took me about 50min to get it working, and it still went in sideways and didnt get my car through inspection, with your guide this took all of about 3 minutes and went through inspection first try, thanks alot man
Awesome 👍
Woooah, the first one to properly and clearly explain the workings of the ''clips from hell'''. You will save many mariages with this :-)
ha ha, thanks Michael
Thanks. Very helpful. I especially love the camera going right behind the bulb to see what I can't!
Hi chris, Thanks for the kind words. Yeah, pictures, 000's of words and all that, lol!! Don't forget to share.
I love Cyclone Cyd. his video's are by far the best, clear and simple instructions to help us do these jobs on our own cars! Thanks Cyd!
By far the clearest instruction video I’ve found! Now off to try and see if it will actually work for me..
How did you get on?
🎥 Replace C1/107 *rear* light bulbs: th-cam.com/video/Y6AXX3lyEIE/w-d-xo.html
🎥 Or any bulbs in the *centre high mounted stop lamp* : th-cam.com/video/bT7drZ9WOn8/w-d-xo.html
A much better video than the AutoDocs one! For some reason, they had us changing the entire headlight cluster and didn't show changing the bulbs!
yeah, I've seen that!! Welcome aboard
Perfect video, thank you - managed to do both in 5 minutes. Note about other videos, you do not need to remove the bumper! Compared to other cars I've owned (looking at you, MkI Focus), there's plenty of room on the battery side to get the bulb out. The rubber cover should be pulled out after you've disconnected the power connector. Then you can remove the clip/bulb.
Glad it helped 👍👍
Superb I tried for about an hour to get clip off not knowing you had to pull it to one side , done in no time following this 👍
This is the only video that has been helpful for me.
The best way to change lightbulb without dismantling the car.
Thank you good sir.
Thanks, Talha. Did you see my DRL conversion?
This was very helpful. With the room that there is inside C1s it is hard to see the clip, but now I know how to unleash the clip. Thank you very much.
Try using your phone in selfie mode like a mirror 👍
Thankyou so much! My dad wasn’t home, so i did it myself. Thanks!!
Only just dipping my toes into sorting stuff myself on my C1 so this was great video. Thanks very much
Everyone has to start somewhere, GDE. Explore the channel, there's more C1 stuff alrerady and more to come
@@CycloneCyd definitely will check the rest out, the DRL upgrade looks like a great little upgrade, really tempted to try that.
Thanks for making this awesome and easy to follow content.
@@Garron88 thanks for the kind words. yeah, I'm really pleased with the DRL setup - I did a similar job on my Saab with a similar product th-cam.com/video/LjvxSXyzaMo/w-d-xo.html
Thank you, I found this very helpful! I watched another one and this cleared the connector business up for me
Great to hear, thanks for your feedback Warden!
Thank you from Holland!
You are welcome, Arno!
Gracias por tus videos demostrando todo lo que sabes , me has ayudado mucho. He aprendido demasiado sobre mi auto.
Just a message to say thank you! Saved me £10 and great to feel so handy haha
Thank you so much. Had been told about the thing to click, but could not see and therefor not know where it was placed. Spend 30 min in minus degrees trying. Went to your video and then it was done in less than 2 min from i opened the hood to it was testet!. Great work and you as only 1 understood where the pain was!
Thanks Lars, welcome aboard
Thanks very much for a really useful, straightforward expalnation. Cheers!!
You're welcome!
this is insanely good and informative video!! so much of help!! and the cinematcs of course, haha :) thanks man you saved all of us a ton of trouble.
Glad to hear it!
The detail of the clip it’s crucial… 👍🏼
Great tutorial! Just been out and replaced blown side light, only to find the main H4 bulb has just gone too. New bulbs ordered, will see how I go with the more fiddly ones tomorrow.
Try using your phone camera in selfie mode like it's a mirror 👍👍🤘
Brilliant video. Another one I saw said half an hour and brute force were required for the headlight!
Thanks, more helpful than other videos
Glad to hear that!
Thank you so much I could not get the tight clip to release I gave up I til I saw this..
Thanks you, I lost my finger with the clip but I finally change my Bulb
Ha ha, yeah it is a bit awkward. Top tip: use your phone on selfie mode to see what you're doing 👍
You are a life saver sir
You are life saver sir
Thank you, nice to know
Good videos on this car I have the c1 all information gratefully received.
Life saver- thank you for this video
👍👍
Fantastic and helpful, ordering a bulb to replace myself. Massively appreciated :)
welcome
Thanks for a good and easy instruction video 👍
Thank you! That was really helpful 🚗 I did have some trouble putting back the clip, but somehow it sprang into place 👍🏼
Glad it helped!
Great video, I saved £6 from store fit but it felt like £50 =D Thanks
Fantastic, pleased for you.
Life saver! Thank you :)
Perfect, thanks so much for the help.
You're welcome, Frankie.
Thank you from Poland 🥰
Thank you so much, this was super helpful! Saved me so much time and probably money 😀
Si, porque aqui cuesta 60Euro.
Thanks a lot. All very clearly explained indeed. However, one remark, or question; you dont seem to either remove beforehand, nor replace after you've finished replacing the head lamp bulb, any rubber seal or gaiter affair. Could you have maybe fotgotten that, of did your car not have one ?
They should have a rubber cap but ours was missing
Mine has a rubber gaitor which makes it difficult to get the connector to the bulb off
thanks dude .... this helps a lot .... save me money ;) cheers
Thanks Marcos, that's great news
A really good description, thanks 😊
Thanks, very useful! The hardest part for me was the clip
Yeah, it's fiddly and you can't see what you're doing! Welcome aboard
You have made it nice and easy, excellent video instructions. Thanks
Very good explanation, thanks you have my 👍
Thank you!
You're welcome Marjelle.
You really helped me out today! Great video! Thank you!
What are the chances of the head lamp aim changing?
Thabks for the video it was great. I couldnt figure out how to get the wire clip to snap back in after changing the globe? I put the rubber thing back on and connected it and its working fine but i would feel better having that clip snapped in. Any tips?
Pay attention at 3:25 onwards and particularly at 3:42
If it's not in place properly the beam pattern will be out, possibly dazzling oncoming traffic and will fail an MoT
Excellent video thankyou
Glad you enjoyed it, Shaun
Succesfully replaced one last year, yet had a problem that the lightbeam was misalligned. Any tips for next time?

Can I change it to a 100 led light as mine seems to be ro weak. I live in France
Thank you
Amanda from France
Also any idea how do i go about height adjustment of headlight? mine started throwing light upwards and i need to bring it down. is there a screw for this or do i just push against the connector or something? thanks
First make sure the bulb is fitted correctly. My MoT tester says about 60-70% of beam problems are caused by fitting issues with the bulbs.
If it is, then get a garage to set your beam for you - it's very difficult to get right at home. Garages use a beam aligner (expensive kit!). Ask them to set the lights at 0.5% not the usual 1% for better range on dip.
Thank you very much, many times :D
Does the citroen c1 use the same lightbulb for high and low beam or does it have separate lightbulb. My low beams aren't working bur my high beams are working. I don't know what to change, pls help. Thank you in advance
Dip and high are an H4 bulb, dual filament. If both dipped beams failed at the same time, check connections and fuses.
thank you very much for a helpful video!
Welcome
Hi. Thanks for the explications cganging a bukb. I have a big rubber cover so I don't know how to take it away. Can you help me
It simply pulls off the back of the light unit.
Ok. I tried already but Ill try again.
I pulled and it came out. Thanks a lot
Its a little bit narrow though I hope I pulled it back correctly
Very good instructions thank you so much
Thank you for the help😊
Thank you really useful. Martin.
Hi cyd,how do you feel about slackening the bumper sides,then remove the 3 headlamp mounting bolts,remove the connector and take the lamp unit inside and fit the bulbs in the comfort of your kitchen where you have full access and a cuppa?😁
You could, but I think it's unnecessary work.
Thank you sir,
Most welcome
Wonderful channel and videos! I was wondering if you recommend to upgrade the headlight bulbs on the C1, mine is running very dim, maybe some LED?
Changing the bulbs to LED is a no no here in the UK and with good reason. Most retrofit LED bulbs are utter rubbish, they destroy the beam pattern and can overheat melting the reflector❗
You could try a pair of these Philips Crystal Vision bulbs. I've heard good things about them, but they aren't road legal in the EU so they aren't very common. Cheap enough to worth a try I think. bit.ly/Philips_Crystal_Vision
HOWEVER: I have found an LED based product that may do the trick. I'm planning to buy some and try them out to assess performance and reliability before I can recommend them. bit.ly/H4_LED_projector
Hi my side light bulb is a bit wobble when connected is there anything I can do to stop it from wobbling thankyou
Tighten up the pins in the bulb holder is about as much as you can do
Thankyou so much
OMG. I just spend 15 min trying to get the glass out of the metal. Than I looked at my new lamp 😅😂
Many many thanks!
It's actually quite easy once you know how, isn't it?
Very helpfull! Thank you very mutch
You're welcome!
Citron C1 = Peugeot 107 = Toyota Aygo - all the same cars
However, I notice on the C1 here, there doesn't seem to be a large rubber grommet / collar around the base of the H4 bulb as there is on my Aygo
mine was missing and I forgot to mention it
Hi!
My Citroën C1 is from late 2015 and if I search for the specific lightbulb online it says that I need a h7 instead of an h4, because h4 is for cars from before 2014. Can you confirm or do I still need a h4 for my car?
Thank you in advance!
Great video, many thanks.
Class thanks
You are welcome
Perfect thank you for your help 👍
No problem 👍 Welcome aboard
Great and super specific video, glad you made it :D thanks
Hi Nicklas, thanks, glad it helped. Welcome aboard
@@CycloneCyd do you by any chance know what type the bulbs is for the inside lightning of the car? (under the radio part) thanks before hand :D
@@nicklaslitte7229 I'm not 100% sure but I would suspect they are T5 type. Use "T5 bulb" as eBay search term
@@CycloneCyd Thanks :D
Cheers lad jobs a good un
Brilliant, welcome aboard
How come you didn't have any rubber seals? I have a big rubber seal that goes in after the bulb
Yeah, a big rubber cap. Ours are missing, but if you've still got them, keep them fitted.
Thank you so much!!!
You're welcome!
Where can I find a earth wire for Citroen c1headlight
Super Useful 👍
Glad you think so!
Great my men
Tried changing the front indicators to LED and after fitted they super flashed so didn’t work ...
Ah ha! You'll like this new video then: th-cam.com/video/9AZBh0TRQSI/w-d-xo.html
I thought you was going to change the bulb on the left hand side. The one next to the battery.
Great video!!!
Thanks Vikram, check out my latest C1 videos here: th-cam.com/play/PLOaePmzqZNJ1fPE11dUmVEWmT7kT4OmAQ.html
Would love this for the Polo 9N...cant get my park light out haha
Hi there Zachary, I have done one for 9N:
th-cam.com/video/45gVQ7Tc4Tc/w-d-xo.html
Good. Tnx.
Hello folks, something I've just realised: you should find a rubber cover behind the H4 headlight bulb. it pulls off really easy once you've disconnected the bulb. It goes back on easy enough too, but as you see we've lost ours lol
Thanks for adding this detail - I was about to point this out... :)
I the rubber cover fits on two concentric circular plastic flanges of the headlight assembly. I found it easier to pull the cover inside-out to press the inner ring into position first (sealing against the bulb's base), then the outer ring.
Also, the job is so much easier if you have a small mirror help you locate the wire clip!
@@74HC04 thanks for the input, I'm sure others will find it helpful.
Yeah a mirror is a good idea, you can also use your phone in selfie mode. Once you've done it a couple of times, you should be able to do it by feel.
@@CycloneCyd Selfie mode is a great idea too! :)

Not so easy the H4 on my wife's 107 !! Far less room than that Citroën
Thx m8!
Thank you soooooooooo much🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
welcome
think you
welcome
So am I right in saying that I can use leds in the c1
In all the lamp positions except the headlight H4, YES. Why not the H4 I hear you ask. Because the vast majority of LED H4 conversion bulbs are CRAP. They destroy the beam pattern, putting LESS light on the road and dazzling oncoming drivers. And are illegal here in UK for this very reason
For the H4, consider these: bit.ly/H4_LED_Proj_Conv - there's even a review from someone with a 107 in Poland. Don't make his mistake though and remember to adjust the high beam screw. I haven't tried these myself yet as I've only just discovered them, but I shall do later in the year.
Cyclone Cyd cheers mate
@@jakekeable1296 welcome. If you do decide to take the plunge with the H4 projectors, please let us know how you get on
Cyclone Cyd will do
Saab mõlemad H4-d vahetada ilma akut maha võtmata
1:38 'Not a canvas car.' What does that mean?
He didn't said canvas.He said «CAN bus» (Controller Area Network).Google it and you will learn what is this about.
Brilliant👍
Thanks Dan
Why are the front and rear indicators two different bulbs that’s so annoying😂😂😂
Have you seen my LED conversion videos. Our C1 is all LED now.
