Headlamp Mounting Tabs, Repairing

If one or more headlamp mounting tabs are damaged or broken off, they can be replaced by installing the repair set. It is not necessary to replace the entire headlamp.

Servicing an HID headlamp and cornering lamp is identical to servicing a Halogen headlamp.

1. Outer headlamp mounting tab

2. Center headlamp mounting repair tab

3. Inner headlamp mounting tab




Check whether there is no further damage on the headlamp that makes installation of the repair set superfluous.

There are two different repair sets, for the left and the right headlamp. Refer to the Electronic Parts Catalog (ETKA).

The repair kit contains an outer, a center and an inner headlamp mounting tab and the necessary screws.

The following illustrations show the tabs on a left headlamp. Repairing a right headlamp is identical.
