sidelight problem !

It's only a 30 second job when you've done it before and know exactly what you're doing.
Like already said remove the battery covers but also remove the air pipe that's held down my two 10mm nuts, makes it much easier. I've got small hands and its still fiddly. It's just a case of patience and perseverance and you'll get there. The sidelight just pulls out by the grey bit, it's not screwed or anything. Remember they only work one way round so test before pushing back into the headlight.
Edit: I misread, this is help for the passenger side which is more difficult. The drivers side is as Chris said, piece of piss.
