Title: light bulbs how easy!?!
Post by: tunnie on 18 November 2007, 15:58:58
Just placed both headlight bulbs.... took all of 9 minites!!!

Started on the drivers side first, took the plastic off, took the rubber thing off.... quick gander 2 mins the bulb was out, and repplaced.

Checked it worked.

Moved onto the battery side expecting a battle, i did it in less time!

Car in garage, both bulbs replaced and out again in less than 10 mins....

Sooo easy compared to my old bosses Renult Megan, where you need to remove the front wheels!!  :o

Size of your hands has a part to play in how long this job takes. I have to remove the battery clamp and move the battery back a bit to get my hands in. Even then it's a struggle.  :(  :y

 You're talking to gadgethands here, remember... ;)

 In my case, I had to move the battery, I've got big hands but the quarter-inch extra clearance I got was sufficient. :y
