just wondering if anyone has had to replace thier parkies before, and how in the hell they got em out!!?? :confused:
ive undone the clip at the back to take the bulb out and can see the park light,(looks like a large LED) but... cant get it out, do you have to take off the front of the light asembly(glass) and pull it out from the front?

remove the wiring, the dust cover.. then you undo that spring/clip thing and as far as I recall the bulb should come out... i cant remember if you have to give the globe holder a small twist or not before removing... sure that clip is undone properly?... hrmmm... I was pretty sure it was that easy.

Edit: but no... not through the lens at the front

yea... i got that bulb out, but im trying to get the other one out, its the really small one below an to the side of this.
you have three bulbs in the asembly; high beam,
normal high/low,
a park.

where the low beam is, take the round rubber cover off then you'll see it on the bottom side.. just give it a pull and a couple of twists and thats it...

Yep, I just had to replace it myself... and couldn't see to get the blasted thing out so I took out my whole headlight and yeah the little bugger is stubborn but it comes out with a bit of agro... you have to get your fingers under the edges (there is a lip there for it) and lever it out.

Now I know where it is and how to get it out I dont think I will remove the headlight again to do it next time... although it is still a bugger to get to.

Driver's side: Remove the washer bottle, Then remove the wiring plug, now once removed take out the rubber and at the bottom you will see and feel a small connecter twist and wiggle and it will come out, the same with the passenger side but remove the battery.
Hope u have luck it's very simple.

I posted the same question a while back. Those things are really stubborn. In the end I had to take the whole headlight out and pull that b*tch out with pliers.
