Excellent advice. It helps if you use a sewing thimble. Otherwise horribly painful for finger pushing against the spring

Hi
This is a great How to… Incidentally when you were writing PD software in 80′s did you use the Mother of all Computers… The Amiga? If you did use it did you come across the daddy of all PD libraries… GRAPEVINE.

It was the disc based Mag that CyberGods came together and made all things possible through Assembly Language.

I got half way through this job and, when I reached the unclipping of the bulb, almost gave up. The photographs above show what the eye could never see and help tremendously. Thanks, James.

I would like to thank James for his guidance without which I probably would have gone to the tool box, picked out a useful implement such as a hammer and smashed every light on this car. I am also the owner of a Volvo V70, the bulbs of which require changing more than most. The front are fine to change, a bit fiddily, but straight forward enough. The rear unfortunately are hit and miss. Again you need to possess the power to shrink your hands and be able to remove a number of fingers. I will never curse the Volvo again having just removed the battery cover, fuse box cover and awkward light cover of this fine French piece of engineering. Why do these manufacturers make the changing of a bulb so time consuming.

Flippin’ fantastic! This is probably the best set of instructions in the universe.
Love my C3, hate the light bulbs, had c3s for 5 years now and changed light bulbs a number of times – always realise how it should be done after sruggling for an hour or two, but now I have the picture for reference that’s great. Once had a fog light broken by a road chip thrown up by a wagon coming towards me – that’s another difficult bulb to get to. why oh why can’t they use some sort of bayonet push and twist fitting?

I was completely and utterly defeated by the dipped bulb on my passenger side (h7). Thank you very much for the advice and pics. I plan to try again tomorrow when my patience has been restored!

Yeah I noticed that this morning. Hopefully it’s just Google going strange.

I was just about to buy a fignition but the website seems to have been removed “This site has been disabled for violations of our Terms of Service. If you feel this disabling was in error, please fill out our appeal form.”
