Default Morette Lighting unit out for bulb change ????

Hi,

I need to change a side light bulb in my Morettes,
have been told the unit needs to come out, is this right? have had a read & if so it says grill needs to be off, bulb changed then beams re set... is this right?

sounds a bit of a fiddle!
any ideas? please.

cheers

It'd help if we knew what car, what model and what year?

If they are anything like the normal lamps, its not hard to remove them, a couple of screws and pull them off the lug.

I think you can get it from the back, or take the plastic cover off the front of the light (grill off first and get it there) if there the same as mine.

Easiest to take the light out, only takes a few minutes - remove grille - 4 clips on top and 1 on each headlight. Undo the bolts - think its one on top by the wing and 2 into the front panel behind where the grille was

Cheers,

Ayde.
