Changing indicator bulbs what a joke

[lee3011]

I tried to change my indicator bulbs the other day but they wouldn't come out so this is what I had to do

Even with the headlights out it was still hard to get them out I tried turning the holder always eventually they came out

Wow!

I had no problems when I did mine; just be thankful you're not paying a garage to do that for you, you'd probably get a bill for over hundred to change 2 bulbs.

Yeah they are a pain in the arse! Had silver repeater bulbs but gave them away... I know how annoying they are to fit!

Please tell me this is a joke!?? I've changed mine several times, I have pretty big hands and whilst yes it's a bit of a pain in the arse, I managed it within 5 mins each time!

Same here, difficult job but no need to strip front of car, lol

at we now know what the windscreen washer bottle looks like but man that sucks

must be a joke! it's a bit fiddly but so far I've changed them over twenty times on different Leons and never had to remove the front bumper......

No seriously I spent 40 mins trying to get the bulbs out but they wouldn't budge but on my previous fr they came out in seconds but like said even with the headlights out they were still a tw@t to remove

Just a quick point. Have you got your front o/s tyre on the wrong way round. I can't see the whole tyre but it looks like the tread pattern is the wrong way.

that is extreme! stuff that for a game of soldiers, i would have seen if one of my mates had spindly fingers or even better pay halfrauds £3.99 and get them to do it... ive personally never had any problems fitting bulbs but think even if i did i wouldnt have gone this far heh top marks for effort though!
