    Hi, I need to change the near side front side light and cannot sort out how
    to get the bulb out.
    I can pull the light unit forward about an inch but is held in with strong
    springs that don't seem to be accessible. Could anyone describe how to get
    at the bulb please.
    Regards Bassdiva

    You have to squeeze your hand down behind the light (from inside the engine
    bay)and unhook the spring from its locating lug. There is a round loop that
    you can stick your finger in, the spring is quite strong. When unhooked the
    light unit can be pulled forward.

    Replacement is reversal of removal, only much harder as you will now have no
    skin left on your knuckles.

    ttfn.....Alistair
