What year? What type of bulb?

See the Lights section of the home page for instructions on various light related issues.

On the facelifted models it's a signficant undertaking. This makes stealing Xenon assemblys harder.

Do not forget to replace them in pairs - otherwise the light colour on each headlight will be different.
