good old wiki answers! i could see how to do it, but was struggling to get my hands in!
anyway for the benefit of anyone who has the same problem in future...(2002 Bugeye Impreza)
1. squeeze sides of black cover round plug on back of lamp and pull directly backwards. this removes the plug.
2. remove rubber boot around rear of headlight by pulling backwards.
3. squeeze retaining clip and hinge downwards.
4. slide bulb out, noting position of fins - there are two spiggots in the bottom of the bulb apperture which the bulb locates into.
5. slide new bulb in, fit retaining clip and rubber boot.
6. push plug back onto rear of bulb and test!
Hope that helps someone in the future!
