a Renault Dealer.

Changing a bulb and adjusting the  
beam:  
Consult your Renault Dealer.  
Any operation on (or  
modification to) the  
electrical system must be  
performed by a Renault  
Dealer  
since  
incorrect  
connections might damage the  
electrical installations (harness,  
units and, in particular, the  
alternator). In addition, your  
Dealer has available all the parts  
necessary for fitting these units.
