Hi all I just typed it up to keep track of what step I'm up to whilst doing the job, save time searching manually for which part I'm up to on the video. Feel free to use this as a guide too :) and Thanks TechClub for the video.
Excellent video, thanks...I'm no mechanic but changed both sets of headlights in 3 hours with this guide. No bolts or screws left over when I'd finished which is a result 😃💪
Thanks so much. I bought a replacement headlight for, would you believe it £27, and then courtesy of this excellent video fitted it myself. Never done it before 👍
It’s the second time I do it one my 9n one 3 one I will put the angel eyes one it. Well done video 👍 It’s not easy to put new lamps one this headlights
Bilal B one thing I forgot to mention was that I had to set the headlight beam to the same level as the other one this can be done by turning the white plastic hex on top of the headlight
Bilal B you can do it after it's installed so it doesn't matter too much i had people flash me to say I had high heels on turned out it was just aimed too high . parked in front of a garage and rotated the hex untill both were the same
Excellent video. I was able to do job in under an hour. It would have been quicker If I had checked I had slid the bumper back in place via the plastic slots on the side of the body work first lol
I don't know why you don't just use a corless drill after getting the bolts loose, it seems a bit annoying to unscrew these bolts by hand while also holding the ratcheted socket wrench. Also, what's the cable on the bumper used for?
That is a hell of a lot of screws and bolts, just top replace a headlight! - Debating whether or not to attempt this myself as garage want to fit a brand new unit to car probably due for the breakers yard before the next MOT
Many thanks, great video, very helpful as my son has just bought a Mk 4 Polo. I've also subscribed as everyone is trying to get to 1000 subs at least.... You do have to wonder which 46 people didn't like the video though?
The replacement of the new lamp combination seems to be different from the 9N on my car. The cover style of the near lamp is somewhat different. Is the replacement lamp the original one?
Are you sure you didn't buy the model for the 'facelift' model, which came out 2005 and ended in 2009. This headlight encases both parts of the lamp without the divide in the middle.
I had to yes. I remember it being a bit of a pain to transfer over. don't forget to adjust your headlight beam height aswell with the white screw thing ontop once you have the new headlight in
Far too much work needed to replace a failed lamp. It's something I never like about modern cars. After all that work, I'd suggest changing _all_ of the lamps to Osram Ultralife variety. They're not the brightest, but they are easily the longest lasting bulbs you can get.
Mam 2 polówki z 2002 roku w obu wymieniałem reflektory kupiłem nowe okazało się że świecą gorzej nisz te orginalne wymieniałem 2 raz na lampy po tuningu wartość lamp 1/4 ceny pojazdu taki zderzak 20 min max 😂
