Title: Depin of headlight connector 2019 PD Go.
Post by: Godders on January 22, 2022, 11:45:03: Trying to depin the 2 connectors for H7 globes as wanting to replace with LED bulbs.

Having a hard time to do this and it should be quite simple. Any advice on how to do it in this car would be appreciated.

You need either a thickish needle or a very small flat screwdriver to fish for the tab and press it. You can then remove the connector while holding the tab. Might need a torch to see which side the tab is on.
