Clio headlights - arghh
Discussion
Got into my 197 tonight to drop my sister off and my dipped headlights flashed on and both stopped working.
I'd find it very improbably that both have gone at the same time and it's probable that one has blown and then blown the fuse too.
I've had a (very) brief look and the bulbs look like absolute bds to get to. Is there a simple way to change these or am I looking at a dealer/bumper off job?

No need to take off the bumper, drivers side really just involves pulling the filler bottle nossle off and passenger side you can take some of the battery covers off and unbolt the secondary air intake valve doohicky to move that out of the way.
It's still tight but no need to remove bumper, I did it and I have hands like shovels resulting in only minor knuckle scraping.

Crisis over! After driving on the fogs all week (I know, I know), I've got the lights sorted. Both had blown and although I've not got much skin left on my hands, I've managed to get the new bulbs in. Why manufacturers make basic tasks so difficult is beyond me!
Probably so you take a trip to their dealerships spending more money With the meg (265 trophy) its much easier just undo two screws, lift a little tab thingy and the whole light slides forward
