Change Headlight Blub without removing bumper

I don't know anything about cars but found this easy and done in less than 20mins.

Firstly credit to the orginal poster who posted this method in a thread a while ago.

Secondly you don't need to remove bumper or battery, just 6 normal cross head screws and wheel arch shield

Lastly pitures paint a thousand words so I have done this guide in piture form. Click on each picture to expand and read the text.

The was done on a '52 5 door Abarth and all access was from the wheel arch.

Aargh, why was the Gallery used?!

YOu need to use the ATTACHMENTS facility, as per the guide to the GUIDES.

Let me sort it out in the next few days

Spent on hour trying to find the guide to doing Guides lol when I couldn't find it I just tried to cobble it together...and it looks it too...I am going to redo it

EDIT

Redone it with attachment...yes I have now found the Guide to Guides...didn't find it in the "how to section though"...probably just me?

Having taken out the wash bottle when in a forest in Scotland during a snow shower and having skinned my knuckles after removing the battery to do the other side , I shall try this technique next time.

Well it sounds as easy as the drivers side done in the same way.... Nice and thanx for this.... I will give it a try!

Question is....how come the Stiloboyz didnt know?

Or is there a catch somewhere?

I did mine in situ, without removing much at all

BUT it killed my hands haha.

Ffoxy, you got a new car?
