Hi all, firstly sorry it's been so long since my last post. I use Tapatalk for forums and can't find this on there. Do let me know if there's anything mobile friendly :thumb:
So, headlight release seems to be the easiest thing in the world on these cars but sadly my near side doesn't work and the unit has also failed. On the offside headlight unit the retaining bolt takes just 90 degrees to turn and the headlight pops right out but on the near side, it spins about 270d egrees without any joy. I've tried smaller turns and trying to prize the unit out and no joy at all, seems that throughout the 270 degrees the unit will not release.
There's no obvious way of getting at the underside of the unit to try and release it without taking a whole load of bits off the car.
Any thoughts?
