    I'm trying to replace the headlamp and im sure its very simple but i just
    can't see how to take the old lamp out. I've popped the casing out by pushing
    the wires back but that's as far as i've managed to get. Can anyone help me
    out!

    Thanks

    The lamp is held in with a wire clip normally. Release the wire clip from
    the two catches and then it should swing out.

    Thanks for the reply, i managed to get the lamp to swing out but i wasnt sure
    how to get the actual bulb out, does it have anything to do with the rubber
    at the back??

    If you are talking about a rubber cup then the bulb is behind that, just
    unplug the connector, remove the rubber cup and then you will get to the
    bulb.

  5. I thought it was, but it was very difficult to get the cup off so i wasnt
    sure and i didnt want to break it. I will try that and let you know how i get
    on, thank you for your help

    The rubber cup can be a pain to get on and off, unless you have very small
    hands.
