Not sure if the search function is broken right now or what but I tried searching first and everything I typed in came back with no results.

All I'm trying to do is replace the headlight bulbs on my 2007 Audi S8 and I'm not sure where to begin. Does anyone have a walk through or some pics or a step by step process?

I started by removing two screws on the driver side, since that's the side that's out right now but now I'm lost on what to do next.

As you can see, I don't have much space to work with.



Driver's side with the top two screws removed

Just showing the tight wheel fitment, as I've read some bits about having to remove some wheel liner to gain access?

Wheel off, wheel liner out, airbox out, access the back of the headlight through there.

Definitely not the answer I was hoping for but it's a solution! Thank you!

Better than the alternative, Pull bumper cover, pull headlight(Hope you don't misalign, this would take about 3 x as long.

+1. Good to learn on the car. Buy extra plastic push pins (aka rivets) from dealer or maybe an indy first. Up to about 5 per side/liner. You will break some, lose other center punch pins, and find yet more too distorted. Or, some not there from prior work. Once you do it firat time, pretty easy. Need to know for drivers airbox pull (if like W12), upper control arms and a variety of other things where you come in from sides.
