  • There’s a trick to everything, taking out these A4 Audi headlamps has a trick to it. There’s one bolt but you can barely see, and there’s a very small hole but you need to access to get to this bolt. Once you know how to do it it’s not bad but getting there is the hard part. The Volkswagen Passat is also set up the same way. In the video I show 2005 A4 Audi sedan but there are a lot of similar years but have the same mechanism.

    HOW DO YOU GET THE HEADLIGHTS OUT? You point out the bolt locations, but how do you get the headlights out of the actual car?

      It’s a tough bolt to get to even if you know it’s there. A long screwdriver would be great, I’ve never seen a screwdriver long enough. But I used a quarter inch drive it barely fits through the hole.

      Yer I saw yours got down that hole. I had a little driver bit set and it had a 20cm flexible extension which did it for me.

    Hey Live Free!, I have a foggy front right headlamp, 1 of the holes to get to that retaining bolt is blocked!, Not by leaves or dirt, But from something on the car, What do you think it could be, as I can't get my socket extension down to the screw!, Any ideas would be great! Thank's.

      Agreed! A lightbulb should not be that difficult to change.

    Well, this is how car manufacturers ensure that their dealer network keeps work and can earn good money. I just think it is criminal that it is impossible to change a simple lamp. In Europe, a law is in force that obliges manufacturers to make it possible for the driver to change a lamp in a simple manner

    video is WRONG !!!
    because in European Union is law, that each car has to be manufactured that way, that everybody is able to remove bulbs.
    Therefore it's absolutely not necessary to remove the lights. Check out other clips

      Anyone CAN change headlights, the proper way to do it is loosen the bumper to allow the headlight to easily come out. Anyone CAN do it if they have the special T30 driver needed to get thru the little hole in the fender. It is necessary to remove the headlights to do the job properly.
