Bloody marvellous! I nearly gave up after trying to follow the ridiculous guidance in the manual: then I discovered these wonderful instructions. A mirror and a torch came in useful, even though it was a bright day.
I owe you a pint, mate (or whatever you have) – even a bag of crisps.

Cheers! Rob, Shrewsbury

Good stuff , when the headlamp went on my wife’s C3 I had no idea how to release the spring , so we took it to Halfords in South Shields who replaced it for a charge , unfortunately the ” Mechanic “ did not replace the back cover correctly so it filled with water . Thanks to these instructions I have manged to remove the bulb and slowly dry the headlamp out . Citroen , never again

Thanks, just spent 3/4 hour poking around in my mate’s C3, now i know how it’s done, if I find someone with smaller hands it should be a doddle!! I drive SAAB 900′s, dead easy compared to the new stuff!!

Comment on Stop your Citroen C3′s radio from beeping at you by Lynne Witt

Thank you for putting this on the internet! I have just had kittens with the car beeping at me as I thought I must have pressed something by accident! Trying to take 3 worried girls to guides too poor things! The radio has been behaving peculiarly for a while actually and fails to tune into preset stations. So thanks this has been really helpful and now can’t wait to get a new car! (looking for an excuse to get rid for a while)
Distressed of Merley!

I can do any job on a car, but after 30 minutes of cursing & swearing, I still had not released the spring clip holding the bulb in place on my sisters C3. After reading this article I realised that the two “loops” on the clip have to be individually pushed towards the front of the car then sideways to release
Most other cars you squeeze to two loops together!
Thanks for the article.

Awesome instructions.

Citroen should hire you.

It was a heck of a way to spend Sunday afternoon.

If anyone finds it hard to put the stupid clip back of, then try folding a little cardboard over your fingertip and tape it down. It allows you to put more pressure on the stupid spring -otherwise you get big indentations in your finger and can’t push down long enough (especially for me the office worker).

Thank again

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