How do i change headlights on my clio (2004)?

[lorenzo49]

I have just been based in Germany with the British Army and i have to change my headlights to European ones so i do not dazzle other drivers. The Army will not allow me to have stick on reflectors, they want all cars to have the correct European lights.

I have bought the lights but im not great with cars and would like some advice on how to fit the headlights please, i could get them fitted at a garage but im sure with a little help i can fit them myself.

Any help would be much appreciated

I guess as on most Renaults, the grille must be removed at first, then find the screws around, deconnect the wires get the old ones out, put the new ones in. A decent tool set needed tho. Mostly torx.

Yup, there is a guide in the guides section. Bumper off job, but easy enough.

Ok thanks i have searched the net and it looks like i have to remove front bumper, is this a big job or something anyone can do?

It can't be that difficult surely? Worst case scenario you'll have to have the front of the car up in the air and the wheels off to get to some screws, but you could do it with the emergency kit jack and just do one side at a time. You might not even have to do it at all - I don't know your specific car.

There's no need to be scared of taking cars apart - they're just metal and bolts! There's no mystical secret to it!
