Side light on mk4 golf

[pad58]

Need to replace the drivers side ...sidelight .
Ive replased the passangers before and had to take the bumper of via the wheel arches,now i can understand that
as the battery is in the way....so do i have to go through the same with this one?

Thanks

Ok i will take that as a NO then.

Hi, i have changed the sidelights before on my mk4 years ago. I managed to change both without having to take the bumpers off and was quite easy

Thanks for that i'll give it a go.

Depends which model you have. There is no way to get behind the lights in my engine bay.

I took the front bumper off, then there are just two screws to remove the light units. Slide them forward, change the bulb with ease, re-assemble.

I've got a 1.6, managed to get them off without bumper. Passenger side was a pain in the arse though with the battery in way.
