Golddigga Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Hi all, I haven't put a really dumb question up for ages now so here goes.... I changed my dipped beam bulbs today for brighter bulbs from powerbulbs, and gave the lenses a good clean to remove alot of the yellow. Actually looks good and is alot brighter now;) However, how the hell do you get to the sidelights as I have the blue bulbs to put in? Is it a lights out job? If so once you have undone the 3 bolts do the lights just come out? i.e. is there anything else attached to them that I need to worry about? Thanks.

robin Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 I just took both my headlights out today. I had to remove the battery, air filter and alarm siren to get enough room. Basicly there are 3 screw/nuts holding each head light in. You will also have to undo all of the clips/harnesses. I think you can do the bulbs while the headlights are in situ but its much easier if you take them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golddigga Posted April 29, 2007 Author Share Posted April 29, 2007 When you unscrew the headlights do they just literally pull out? I changed the dipped beam no trouble in situ but I think the sidelights are alot further down....sadly I am not blessed with tiny hands.

Mike_Mac Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 If you feel behind the H/L you will find a 'screw-cap' behind the sidelight location. Undo it and pull it out. You will find the sidelight bulb on the end of a long extension fitted to this screwcap. The extension allows the bulb to fit into the H/L so far forward. Absolutely no need to take the H/L out, even if you've got hands like a Gorilla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
