01 1.2 Headlight bulbs - smithi
Hi ,

I am having trouble changing the dipped beam headlight drivers side. My hands seem to be a bit to big, and the car has aircon which has several pipes just where I want to put my hands.

So my question before I force a socket on the bulb holder ! is how easy is it to take the headlamp out, to give that precious room. Is there only the one bolt visible on the top or will there be a bit more body work dismantling. or shpould I just go to Halfords and pay them to change it ?

obviously not a problem that has been encountered before.

I ended up getting Halfords to replace it, the gentleman could not replace it so he called an able female assistant with smaller hands who managed to do the job. All for a £5.

And to answer the question the bolt on the top of the headlight is one of ??? more.
