Must remove the NEG cable on battery
The way to remove the old xeon bulb, NO CLIPS .... on this 2011 model.
Twist the bulb assembly, falls into a small groove and the bulb comes right out of the head light assy.

Yes, its a D1S bulb. You can follow this DIY and the opening lid is the difference on the Countryman vs. the R56+ Hardtop.

Great video, except for the CLIPS, on the Countryman 2011 has NO CLIPS, when removing, just turn the old bulb unit and replace ...
