Instructions are in the handbook, but if the 1.8T is the same as the 160 V6, then it is not too difficult.
In the front wheel arches, there is an access panel to allow you to get your hand in to get to the dipped units. Remove the rubber glove, and release the wire clamp, and take out old bulb. The bulb (H7) can then be fitted and as Haynes manuals says refitting is teh reverse.

Your hands will get dirty, and on the n/s the access is difficult because, if like the v6, there is the air intake hose sticking up into the area.
