Replacing sidelight bulbs - HOW THE F***?

Post by dub warrior3 »

Finally got round to fitting my HID kit today and it wasnt too bad a job once the air box was out.
Havent had chance to test them properly in the dark yet, but they are in and working.
Trouble is that my sidelight bulbs are now distinctly orange.
Had a look at taking one out and I am stumped.
How do they come out?
Are the just pushed in?
Obviously with the airbox out I could just about contort my head in and see the back of the bulb. With my sausage fingers I could feel two flats on the back of the bulb so I presume they are just twisted in or out.
Question is how?
I'm gusessing with along pair of needle nose pliers or similar. Even then, how do you do the passenger side with power steering reservoir behind it? I dont really want to take the headlights out as it looks like the bumper needs to come off first.
Any advice?
