Light it up

The Haval H1 is the smallest of the H series SUVs, although not a true SUV but rather, a crossover, the H1 is still a very capable vehicle. The H1 still makes use of H9 filament bulbs that have a certain amount of life hours and will eventually need to be replaced.

This is a relatively easy job that you can do right at home with minimal tools required, and we can show you how it's done.

You will need:

Replacement H9 bulbs
10mm wrench

Let's get it done

1. Open the bonnet

2. Locate the retaining screws for the headlight assembly

3. Remove the screws with the 10mm wrench and then remove the headlight assembly

4. Remove the rubber dust cover

5. Remove the wiring plug

6. Remove the retaining clip

7. Replace the bulb

8. Reassemble in reverse order
