To change the headlight bulb on a BMW 5 Series, you will need to access the back of the headlight assembly. Remove the screws or clips that hold the assembly in place and carefully pull it out. Then, locate the back of the headlight bulb and twist it counterclockwise to remove it. Replace the old bulb with a new one, making sure not to touch the glass part of the bulb. Finally, reattach the headlight assembly and test the new bulb before driving.
