They are designated left and right fitments so don't mix them up. To remove the headlights you have to remove the whole bumper cover - lotsa work for little gain.

Adam Here since the start...

The light won't push out from the back. There are clips on each corner that hold the light in that are just push tabs. One or more of the tabs probably isn't in position properly.

Lazy dealer I say. but its my fault for not noticing it before driving away I spose, hopefully easy to fix,cheers,Daniel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can't get it up in the air your probably better taking the whole bumper off, it's not hard and then you'll be able to get to the light easily.

I might be able to get a set of those ramps they use in car yards, sounds like it'd be worth it,cheers,Daniel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
