Arosa Side Light Bulb

[wehey]

Hiya all.

The passengers side light bulb is out on my Arosa and I have read that they are a real bugger to change.

Could someone please link me to a replacement bulb to save me the trouble of taking it all apart once to remove and find out which bulb I need, and then again to fit a new one.

Thanks in advance

Just search for 501 bulb on ebay mate. I'd go for the LEDs.

This will help:

Just fitted the new side light bulb

Not as bad a job as I thought it would be even tho I have hands like shovels.

Just removed the battery and pulled the bulb holder out, fitted new bulb and put it all back together.

10 min job tho I imagine that the drivers side would be a right pita due to access

It's easy enough both sides on Loops and Rosas. You just need to get your hands in and be willing to get a cut or three.

If you buy LED make sure they're CREE. Normal LED's are simply not bright enough. LED's are also slightly more prone to heat so be wary that although they last longer 'in theory' you may find they fail prematurely due to heat.
