Headlight bulb replacement

    A friend has an 07 Megane and the passenger front headlights bulb is blown. We had a look at removing the bulb but we don't have child sized hands :-) to remove it, so do we remove the whole headlight unit or remove something else to get at the bulb?

    They are replaced from the back and can be awkward. Can't remember what's in the way here, is it the battery or a fuse box?

    Thanks wheelnut, its the fusebox plus the battery doesn't make it easy, even if we did remove the battery it wouldn't have much space.

    There is an access hole in the passenger wheel well to be able to change the bulbs.

    To improve access either remove the wheel or turn the wheel full lock towards drivers side.

    If you remove the wheel, ensure you use an axle stand before sticking your head under the wheel arch. It could hurt a bit if the jack slipped.:rolleyes:

    You don't even need to remove the wheel, just turn it in full lock and you will see the access panel.
