Question Replacing Xenon Headlight Bulb

Hello everyone,
I hope you're all doing well.

I own a 2014 Mercedes CLS, and I'm facing difficulty replacing the Xenon front headlight bulb.
I’ve referred to the WIS manual, but the instructions weren’t clear, and I couldn't find a way to easily access the bulb.

Could anyone please guide me on the correct method for replacing the Xenon bulb?
it would be extremely helpful.

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Those could be LEDs. The xenons are probably circular.

They are sealed lights. (Mercedes Benz LED Intelligent Light System) The only parts replaceable are the 3 control modules.
Make sure you're sitting down if you get a quote from a dealership for a new headlight.
They're often available secondhand on ebay......still not cheap.
Are you getting a fault message?
