Customer Question

how do I change the headlights on my Nissan Micra SVE, 2006, I need to change them to European (French) standard

 

Country: United Kingdom
Make: Nissan/Datsun
Model: Micra SVE

Engine: 1.2

Already Tried:
There appear to be two visible bolts, top & bottom, but the headlamp assembly seems to be held on behind the bumper. Is there another bolt, and/or do I need to remove the bumper?

shadeydaz :

Hello, the front bimper needs to loosed/ removed to gain access to the bolts. Alternatively you can go to Halfords or the like and buy some beam deflectors, that when fitted on the outside of the lens will make the headlamp legal in Europe, and, or they can be painted with lens paint to a yellow. Thanks Darren.

Customer :

Many thanks. Unfortunately beam deflectors are not suitable. I already have them and when I took the car for a Controle Technique (French equivalent of an MOT) it failed and I was told I have to replace to whole lights.
