How do you turn the lever to replace a headlight bulb on a VW Beetle 2008?

To turn the lever you can use a 1/4" drive ratchet, a 4-6" extension bar, and a 5mm socket. Alternately you could use a nutdriver with the same 5mm socket as long as the shaft is long enough to provide clearance for your hand. Turn the lever counter-clockwise 180 degrees to free the headlight housing. Use a long screwdriver, about 12" shaft, or a similarly long stick or other object to push down on the aluminum catch located behind the headlight housing. This catch can be seen by looking in the void immediately behind the battery box at the back of the headlight housing. It is a rectangular catch that will easily release when you press down. The headlight housing will then slide out of the front of the car by pushing from inside the engine compartment. Do not let it slide out and hit the ground. Slide it slightly forward and then stand in front and pull it the rest of the way out. Tools needed: 1/4" drive ratchet 6" or longer extension bar for the 1/4" drive ratchet 5 mm socket 12" or longer screwdriver, stick, or similar object alternately: 5 mm nutdriver with 6-8" shaft

Open the hood. On top of the headlight assemblies, there's a curved metal rod. Pull that out, and you can pull the headlight assembly right out. From there, you turn the bulb ballasts counterclockwise and pull them out, and you can either replace the bulbs at that point, or the whole headlight assembly if necessary.
