how do i change headlight bulb
david, February 2010
with great difficulty...its so tricky...and the annoying thing is by bulbs keep blowing!! vive pulled my hair out any times.....i always used to get the lad in the shop to do mine and buy him a drink..its well worth it...until he left!!!!!!! and i had to start doing it

so since then ive slowly mastered it but its been a long winding road.

if its battery side...remove the battery for more space.
1. un clip the clip that secures the bulb.
feel for the clip and carefully un clip it but be careful not to pull the clip right out of its mounting. if you do
this by mistake it clips back in but it just makes it all a bit trickier.

2. disconnect the wire.
the wire pulls out of the connector.. just leave it hanging.

3. remove the bulb.

4. replace the. this is the most difficult part because you have to align it in the socket at the correct angle so that your not toughing the headlight glass. you also have to be careful not to toch the grey tip of the bulb against anything as it can ruin the bulb.

5. reconnect the wire....quite easy and not so tricky.

6. replace the clip to secure the bulb.can be a pain

good luck
