Front side light
I am trying to replace the front side lights. I have taken the main headlight electrical connector off so that I can get to the little side light connector. Tried twisting and pulling but it won’t budge. Can anyone advise how this should be removed?

Hi DougX,
Rotate the bulb holder anti-clockwise 1/4 turn and pull out of the Headlight unit. If you're having problems getting the lamp holder out of the light, try some release agent after a drive when the plastic is warm and a pair of long nosed pliers to wiggle the holder out.
Hope that helps Doug.
Good Luck.

Thanks Andy, will give it a try and will let you know if I am successful.
Re: Front side light
Brilliant. Although hard work turning them, the space is very confined, I managed to get both out. Couldn’t have done it without your knowledge Andy. Many thanks again.
