Re: Anyone Changed a Headlight Bulb???
I changed my nearside headlamp bulb last december-put a thread on then about it-after my local Fiat dealer wanted £33 to do it. After faffing around removing the battery and still finding there wasn't enough room to get the bulb cover off, I took off the n/s/f/ wheel, and undid the phillips screws on the inside of the wheelarch to pull back the plastic wheelarch cover, and found it easier to get to the bulb cover. I managed to do it, but not without grazing my knuckles.As I said at the time, it's a hell of a difficult job,which ought to be a lot easier.But if I had to do it again, I would; once you get the wheelarch cover of it's a lot easier.
