Advice. To reduce the risk of damage to the car body, it is preferable to remove the bumper (see "Front bumper - removal and installation").
Comment. The work is shown on the left block headlight. Removing the right headlight unit is performed in the same way, but this does not require removing the battery. It is enough to turn off the outdoor lighting.
Removing
1. We prepare the car for work (see "Preparing the car for maintenance and repair").
2. Remove the battery (see "Battery - removal and installation").
3. Remove the grille (see "Radiator grille - removal and installation").
4. Slightly turning the working cylinder of the hydraulic corrector counterclockwise, remove it from the headlight housing. Disconnect the wiring harness from the headlight.
5. socket wrench by 8 mm unscrew the three headlight mounting bolts (1). socket wrench by 10 mm unscrew the two bolts securing the shield to the upper cross member of the front panel (2).
6. Disconnect the front turn signal harness connector.
7. Ring wrench by 10 mm under the bumper, from the bottom of the car, unscrew the nut of the lower headlight bracket (pictured bottom view).
Warning! Performing the following operation requires skill and accuracy, as it is easy to damage the body elements or scratch the paint. If difficulties arise, then you should remove the front bumper and continue working without it.
8. Having pressed the loose headlight upwards, carefully, trying not to damage the paint on the wing and bumper, we remove the outer end of the headlight trim from engagement with the edge of the front wing.
9. Slightly tilting the upper edge of the trim forward, disengage its lower part from the bumper and at the same time pull the trim out from under the headlight and move it towards the front wing.
10. Remove the block headlight from the car.
Installation
We install the block headlight in the reverse order, after which we adjust the direction of the beam of its light (see "Block headlight - light adjustment").
