    When one of the bulbs blew on my facelift Signum I came to the conclusion that I needed a small double jointed child to change them. As I didn't have one in the tool box I took it Halfords & let them swear at it instead.

    Don't know how you did it.....

    Took me 20 minutes to change the passenger side bulb with multiple deep cuts to my fingers.

    Nicj, it's easy. Which side is it on?

    For the passenger side, just remove the filler neck of the screen was bottle for easier access.

    For the driver side, it's much easier if you remove the air box.

    My hands are not the smallest, and I find it quite easy
