My daughter's C3 appears to have blown a headlight bulb.
Scheduled replacement is Saturday or Sunday (car doesn't stand still for very long )
Anyone know if this is a bumper-off job? Old model (56 plate). Done all the other cars but this is the first on the C3.

Re: C3 headlights
No need for the bumper to come off but the one on the N/S can be a bit fiddly with the battery in the way.

Re: C3 headlights
If you need to, you can quick un clip the battery cover box thingy to get a bit more wriggle room. Put a towel or cloth under where you are working so if the spring clip thingy flies off, it shouldn't , you can find it again. Last time I did a bulb it was a 5 minute job plus 1 hour to find the bleep thing.
