Thats if you can get the sidelight bulbs out.. Im having problems changing mine - grr!!.. pure nightmare, think the whole headlight has to come out to change them properly, unless you have tiny tiny hands. Someone please correct me if im wrong!

I had the same problems too mate,made s**t of my hands :evil:

Iv found the best way is to grab the cables and pull hard,i was afraid of damaging connections but it worked out fine :)

I can see where it should go (back of headlight cap removed) but do you really have to pull on the wires to get it out? Felt like I should twist it to release it but it only moves an eighth-turn...

Who'd have thought something so small could cause so much trouble? Don't answer that.

bit tricky alright,confused me too when i was removing them!
Just give them a good old pull mate,takes quite a bit of force to get them out the first time! :P
