Changing halogen daytime running lights/high beam bulbs on Golf VII

To change your daytime running light bulb, you will need to open your hood using the hatch located in your Golf 7 below the light control.

Then locate the bulb cover, simply switch on the ignition on your vehicle, leave the daytime running lights on or put the parking lights on then the cover is located just behind the light bulb.

You can now pull the cover behind the bulb to then have access to the bulb.

By putting your hand in the slot you will feel the support which makes contact with your bulb, hold it in your fingers then turn sharply counterclockwise.

Once removed, hold the support well so that it does not fall into the engine compartment otherwise you will have difficulty finding it.

You now have the holder and the bulb in your hands, pull the bulb upwards to unclip it.

If you can't do this, use a small flat-head screwdriver to lever it without dropping the bulb on the ground.

Once the bulb is removed , place the new bulb in the holder , respecting its direction.

Once the new bulb is put back on its holder , replace the assembly, to find the direction in which it will clip , turn it gently and you will feel that at one point it will fit without forcing into its housing.

Once it is pushed in well turn clockwise strongly because it is difficult to reclip.

All you have to do is replace the plastic cover by presenting it in front of its support and pressing hard on it.
