NOTE: Before the headlights can be installed, the headlight plug mount for the central headlight plug must be greased with lubricant.

Greasing the plug mount makes it easier for the plug to slide into the mount and thus guarantees an optimal connection.

Use lubricant part no. 000.043.206.16. Since the part number or index is subject to change, the part number must additionally be checked in the PET.
