I am currently in the process of replacing my sidelights with white LED's on my '57 Leon Cupra.


Now I'm fairly new to this car so I'm looking for a bit advice before I go ripping my lights apart.

I appear to have 3 lights (https://i.imgur.com/2i6QtUR.jpg):
  1. Big headlights main one, Position 2 on the headlight switch
  2. Medium sized Bulb on the side, this bulb never actual comes on (This is circled in red)
  3. Smaller sized bulb, Position 1 and 2 on the headlight switch (This is circled in green)
The bulb I'm actually looking to replace the Smaller bulb with some white LED's which I have purchased:

Basically, my question is, am I doing this wrong? Am I looking at /changing the right bulb?

I have attached a video of where I'm going to change the bulbs, is it the right place ?
 
The white holder is the one you need, if you wiggle it you should see it move in the lense. This one just pulls out.
 
Update:

I seriously overthought this, it was a piece of piss; did it in 5 mins.

Just pull the rubber cover off; while the wires a tiny bit see if either bulb moves then navigate to each holder thing.

One tip I would give is, LED’s will only work one way in the ballast.

Leave the bulb out of its clip; try the light, then if it works out it back in. If not flip it.
