Being a Car Salesman, my dad and stepmum seem to think I am a mechanic as well.

Just had to change the brake light on her 06 (Pre Facelift) Meriva Breeze.

Could they have made it any harder? She went APEst when she came out of the house to find half the back end of her car spread across the drive!

Having trouble with your brake light sir? We can help with that.

£45+Vat Labour and £10+Vat for the bulb sir.

Car companies don't make it difficult by accident.

Volvo's XC90 front lights are great, 2 pins(?) and then the whole assembly comes out in your hand! .... Got to admit I got a bit of a shock when I first changed a bulb on it.

Try doing a headlamp bulb on a Rover 75. It's a 2 hour job at a dealer if you do it by the book!
