2012 Saloon Sidelights
 

Hi

Can anyone tell me how to change the sidelight bulbs on a 2012 WRX STI Saloon?

Does the headlight have to come out? and what do I have to disconnect to get them out.

Pictures would be great if anyone has a link.

cheers

Go in through the wheel arches... Turn your wheels in on whichever side you're doing. Remove the arch liner clips at the front where it fastens to the bumper and ease your arm in. The liners are quite flexible, you can then feel your way to the side lamp holder, twist and remove, getting bulbs in is tricky but possible. If you're fitting LEDs turn side lights on before fitting new bulbs so you know you have the LEDs fitted in the correct polarity and working.

cheers, that's exactly what i'm doing. I'll give it a go tomorrow.

The sidelight bulbholder has an extension on it so it's "easier" to handle and locate.
