How do you do this too? I turned the thing which seems insanely tough to do but I turned it but I don't know if I pull or what!

So anyone care to explain please!? lol [:@]

its a twist and lock but its tricky because of the space u have its a half turn and a pull out. when its out try set it up so the grooves line up and make your job easier. you could always just take full headlight out.i always do that when fitting the hids its alot easier

I ended up taking the bumper off to get the headlights out and even then with the headlight out the bulb holder to a lot force to remove :censored:

It's SO stupid how hard it is, it's unreal I have cut my hands open even more so than they already are. I don't know if I can be bothered now really being put off modding this car NOTHING seems to be straight forward lol

Didn't struggle at all with mine. Took me no more than 5 min to change both sides. It's just a case of 1/4 of a turn anti clock wise and pull back. Hardest part is getting it back in so pay attention to the position of the holder after you have turned it but before you pull it out.

They must make them for smell men to do or something because I can't get my ham hands in there to do it!!!

So it's not completely unscrew it's 1/4 then? Maybe that is where I am going wrong, I have pulled and I am too scared to pull it too hard to break something. Annoying me really!

[:@] Insanely stupid task, skin stripped off every finger, I ended up pulling the airbox up to get access and see where I needed to refit the holder, I may just pay someone to do this next time.[:@]
