    Any advice on how to change the headlight in a Citroen C5 ?
    Is there much i must disconnect etc.....
    Did one in a Mondeo and it was dead easy. Those french ****ers really know how to make it complicated though !!!

    You'll have to remove the bumper to remove the headlamp..:eek:
    If you need the front bumper removal guide pm me an email address and i'll send it onto you..;)

    Once the bumper is removed just remove 2 & 3 below..:)

    Its a hellish task.
    I had a rattle at it over the weekend and got nowhere. I wouldn't have much tools, and the only way i could get to it was by removing the battery and that wasn't budging because there is some sort of a large screw type thing holding it in place. So, booked her in for a service with a friend.
    And to make matters worse, got stopped at a checkpoint Sunday night, the garda took great exception that i knew the light wasn't working, i showed him the spare light i bought, and explained the complexities of trying to change it, all to no avail. So now i have a court summons coming my way.
    Damn you Citroen.
