One of my cars, I had to dismantle the air filter unit to get to the light housing. However, when I took the car to Halfords for them to fit one, they went in via a "secret compartment" located in the wheel arch. Might be worth checking it out to see if you can do this with your car

Went round to the service department of Arnold Clark as I bought the car from them and they do the service but because it’s still under warranty I had to go to Hyundai.

ChrisHB Jul 2021 10:38am, 2 Jul 2021 21,042 posts	Quote Pin ChrisHB Bookings.com seem to be a very needy organisation whose whole life has been improved by finding a 'friend' in me, and they are sending me constant emails since I made a booking. Today they have surpassed themselves because I booked tomorrow night in one town having previously searched for something in the neighbouring town. They have written in a single email to remind me that I have a booking tomorrow night and to recommend a different hotel in the original town for tomorrow night.

Or read a few reviews and dismiss it.]
