Hi,
right xenon on omega 2.6v6 2002 stop working 
Do I have to take off headlight to change the bulb?
What type of bulb is fitted?
I presume that the original is pretty expensive, and thinking about buying from Ebay...
Thanks

Best place to get them is from here http://www.hids4u.co.uk/ you don't have to take headlight out just cover from back of headlight to access bulb dontbtouchnthe glass of the bulb though

Assume to have HIDs - if so you want DS2 bulb.

Bit tight access but ok to change without removing light unit - allow 1/2 hour from swithching off lights/ignition before starting, undo 3 x torx screws on back, and pop bulb out.

D2s bulb

Philips were standard fit on those, I paid £61.99 recently from autobulbsdirect 3 weeks ago for a pair.

Hi It is better to take the unit off the car as it is very tight and the plastic crappy adjusters will probably break  so be very careful and try not to use alot of pressure otherwise you will be taking headlight unit off and either replacing it or the adjusters inside.

Replaced 2 on my old Elite and 1 on the old Estate - all without removing light units - as said a bit tight but not a problem.
