Headlight
« on: 09 February 2008, 14:32:29 »

I've just tried to change my sidelight bulbs for LED type.
Followed the instructions in the handbook, removed covers.
Are they having a laugh, how the h... are you meant to get your hand in there?

Is there an easier way of getting to them?

Just a word of warning be gentle with the headlamp , the heat tends to make some of the plastic parts brittle on the adjusters if it breaks the headlamp reflector becomes detached . I know I have had broken ones before  :y
