Embarassed to Ask!

Tried to change the front N/S indicator bulb on my 1993 Mondeo today.

How the Hell do you do it?
Can't access through the bonnet or wheel arch. Don't want to take the headlight off if it ain't nessesary.

5 minute job!!!!!! right

Anyone know how. Got my MOT retest tomorrow.

Thanks

if its anything like my Focus, you need to take the headlight out to change.

Should only be held in with a screw and a couple of clips though

Later

I think there is two spring clips and the whole headlamp unit slides out - its an easy once you've done it type job!

DONE IT!

You don't need to remove the Headlight unit.

There is a Torx bolt inside the the car just behind the headlight. Undo and the light falls out. Will attach images later.
