Removing the rectangular headlight
cover
Most of the bulbs in the headlight housing can
be accessed when the rectangular cover has
been removed.
Before the rectangular cover can be removed, the
plastic covering must be removed, see the article
"Replacing bulbs" for information.
1. Loosen the cover's four screws with a T20
Torx screwdriver (1) but do not remove them
completely (turning them 3–4 turns is
enough).
2. Push the cover to the side.
3. Remove the cover.
Put the cover back in place in the reverse order.
