Hi all,
Posted here for advice before and it's always been helpful, only spend a few weeks a year with my Hilux, but for the life of me I'm stumped on how to change the side light bulbs, which are blown.
The car is a 2012 mk7 from South Africa. 2.5 75Kw, 5 spd.
Their is a small hole on the inner wing through which you can get your hand onto the connector for the side light however no matter how much I wiggle them the holders won't budge, the holder go into the bottom of the light fitting, underneath the indicator and aren't part of the main headlight lense, I don't have enough space to grip the holders well and have limited movement and leverage to twist or pull them.
Is there some well kept secret on how to get these out I've looked at getting at them from underneath but that looks like a wheel off and remove the wing liner, which is a good chunk of hassle I've also looked at removing the whole headlight unit to get at them which looks like a remove the grill and bumper option.
Is there an easier way to do this or do I just have to bite the bullet and start to pull the front of the car apart!!
Thanks for any advice.
Andy
