Hi all,

I need to get both parking light and dim bulbs replaced on one side of my focus.

Its been suggested that getting at the lights is difficult on the car and should be done by a mechanic...any views on this? Would I be able to do it myself reasonably confidently?

alternatively, is there anywhere handy that will replace bulbs rather than going through a garage/mechanic?

thanks

One screw on top, 2 tabs at the back of the lamp, push them down and out she pops.
