how to change a headlight bulb?

[Matty89]

hi, just bought some headlight bulbs for my corsa, but can't see how to get the bulbs out? Its an 05 facelift, on my old preface lift i chaged them but on the new ones, the bulb cap seems to be infront of metal plate! any help will be helpful?

Its an absolute joke imo

why the fcuk should you have to drop the bumper? who designed that? lol

Apparently you can change them without dropping the bumper but i've got small hands and I ended up with a few cuts. Dropping the bumper takes 5 minutes, have a look in the tutorial section.

I got mine done without the bumper coming off, it was stupidly hard work though but i surpose it only took ten minutes

droped it to a garage who did it for free :)

headlights or sidelights? cos headlights u can just unclip the plastic backing , remove the little metal clip and replace the bulb, 2 minute job.. sidelights u gotta remove the bumper, its like 3 bolts and will take a couple mins
