If you have a bugeye then it is different. Post again if this is the case and I can explain.

Simple job changing side bulbs, yea right

Before I dismantle the entire front end, someone please tell me there is a simple easy way to change the f******g bulbs, this is an MOT failure for christ sakes

mmmmmm having read some other posts am I right in thinking I undo bolt and then pull headlight forward thereby giving access to rear of headlight and easy bulb change?

or am I going to have to get my tool kit out and use my precision instruments of hammer and chisel

Sorry, don't know about MY00, but on bugeye = dismantle front end

Rather than "hold car and remove bulb", its "hold bulb and remove car"

Whilst I have the engine out do you recommend any other small service jobs that should be done? Fill up washer fluids I already know about.
