Just changed a headlight bulb....

[Garlick]

Never done it before, who would've thought I'd need to take the wheel off and then fiddle with some seized screws to gain access?

TVR, expect the unexpected. At least it got me out of the office during lunch

I do hope none of your selftapper heads broke off as mine did.

[Garlick]

Nothing broke fortunately, but I almost came unstuck.

Oddly I have been told twice that I have a brake light out, so bought a bulb for that too. When I checked today both were working so I have a loose connection it seems.

You've got a dedicated access panel? What,Just so you can change the bulbs? with out having to hire a small chimney sweeps assistant to climb into the nose cone and do it the old fashioned way?

Why point out a given ??

[Garlick]

I could explain that I put it up when parked at work, but why bother

I was just saying to Podie that this didn't seem to work for us, not with the stuck screws anyway.

Maybe it will be easier the next time.

I know he mentioned before about getting a Griff, so probably just practicing.

most of my screws are held in with sikoflex so the screwdriver is optional for me
