The whole headlight assembly?

You may find it easier to remove the front grille and then the bumper to get easy access to the headlight fixing screw.
There is some discussion and pictures here - Removing C3 Headlight

Some have managed it without removing the bumper, but it depends how small your hands are ;)


If its just the lamps, then there are several to choose from, have a look at this topic - C3 Headlamp bulb changing - some photos.
