This video was exactly what I needed to be able to do the job. After watching this it took less than 2 mins to change the passenger side headlight bulb, including disconnecting the battery and the fuse box cable. Brilliant advice and very easy to follow, thank you!
Hi Renaldo, just wanted to say you’re a lifesaver! Went to Halfords and even they said they couldn’t do it but just managed to change it now with your help! Thank you SO much!
That was gold! Thank you very much. To remove the bulb connector I managed to get a finger on the lower edge and then used a flat-head screwdriver to lever gently against the top edge. Reassembly remarkably trouble-free - even managed to get the bulb in at only the second time of trying and the connector also snapped back on reasonably easily. The last thing was to snap down the battery connection and for some reason it wouldn't go at first - two metal bits seemed totally out of alignment and the car manual instructions were as clear as mud. I closed the bonnet; started the engine anyway; drove round the block; opened the bonnet again and hey presto! it just snapped back down.
Thanks Renaldo, great video. I just tried it myself before, and I really struggled, but will try doing what you've done - it's raining at the moment though, but I will be extra careful.
@@renaldopacheco5362 You're welcome. I just changed it now (I decided not to do it in the rain in the end, and had to find a tool to get the hex bolt out..!). Thanks again for your help. I was able to follow everything you did in the video, however, I wasn't able to get the positive end of the battery off - on my Peugeot the positive cable was fixed onto the positive end of the battery, it didn't seem like it could come off. So in the end, I did it with the battery still connected, which I respect is not the best idea... When I turned my car on and put the lights on, the new headlight bulb I put in actually came on which is good. Hopefully I didn't blow a fuse or anything like that, but we will see..! Happy New Year!
Great, sounds like it went okay. I may have been a bit over cautious by disconnecting the battery. You should not have any blown fuses as a result. Happy New Year to you too.

Hi Jess, thanks for your lovely comments, am glad you managed to replace it 😊
Simple advice, well delivered and most importantly helped me to change the bulb successfully, Thanks Renaldo 👍
You are very welcome

Glad it all went well, interesting how you managed to get a flat head screwdriver to help remove the connector. Thanks for your positive comments
Absolute life saver mate,thought I was gonna have a miserable time until I saw your video
Glad you managed to get it replaced 👍

Thanks for your positive feedback! I hope you managed to successfully change the bulb

@@Duderantula Hah - I couldn't get mine back on at first!
How do I replace the whole cover of the headlisghts??
I am not too sure if honest, there should be a tutorial video on TH-cam to explain how to do this. Good luck 👍
Three hours, ripped gloves and cut fingers, i had to admit defeat and take to a garage, plastic connecter just would not shift
Sorry to hear about the struggle, I hope the garage was able to change it for you
