Awesome 👍 demonstration. You are the only person who explains and shows you what the 2 locking mechanism do when you turn the 5 mm screw and push the spring metal tabs. I was able to fix my niece car thanks to you.

This is the best and most descriptive video for the left headlight I’ve found, showing the mechanics of how the clips work to release it really helps me massively I thought all the battery box and everything had to be removed, I was dreading the job Now I’m looking forward to it (a tiny bit 😂) Yellow bug owner here too 💛💛

Just a side note to your great video. If you use a large suction cup or new toilet plunger on the headlight it is much easier to pull the headlight out. Try it out. Works great for me every time. Peace-Out

Of course, test the headlights after reinstalling the headlight. If nothing turns on, the white part of the electrical connection might not be seated all the way or at all. You can look in to see it seating when pushing the canister in to make sure it's lined up and fully seated.

Hey thanks, getting down in there is rather tricky, but knowing where to look helps. I ended up using the end of a wooden coathanger to push down the second lock, any stick that would reach and fit would do. For anyone else trying this, a 5mm socket on the end of an extension/ratchet would do if you don't mind potentially losing your socket (almost happened to me!)--I think the long nutdriver would be a better solution, one that just wasn't available to me locally at the time. Anyway, once you unlock the headlight ass'y, smooth sailing. Thanks again!
