peterstanding Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 Does anyone know how to change the sidelight bulb on the passenger side cant seem to find a way in there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2 Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 You use a screwdriver covered in tape (to avoid scratches), and lever the plastic lamp holder thing from the rear small end. It's spring loaded. One end is spring loaded, the other isn't. If it hasn't been replaced before, the spring loaded end is towards the rear. But it can fit either way round. If you need to force it, try the other end. It needs very little effort. They often split and water gets in. But they are cheap to replace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mk2 Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 Ah, do you mean the indicator sidelight or the parking light? If it's the parking light, that's a plug and twist I think (can't remember 100%). The entire thing comes out. Haven't changed one of those for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterstanding Posted February 2 Author Report Share Posted February 2 no its the bulb under the headlight, the side light that comes on one turn before the headlight comes on think its the original bulb 24 years old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterstanding Posted February 2 Author Report Share Posted February 2 looks like i will have to try and move the battery over a few centimetres to get my hand in there, as its impossible with the battery in the current position, do you know what the code is for that please?

lupo 1.7sdi Posted February 4 Report Share Posted February 4 Yes, the battery needs to be moved, otherwise there's no way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
