Replacing front indicator bulb 98 A3
« on: June 29, 2010, 12:40:06 PM »
I suppose this would be easy if I were a contortionist.

I'm not, so I'm struggling.

The old lampholder has a fair bit of corrosion I've taken off, so I suspect it wasn't that well-fitted into the lens assembly in the first place.  No real surprise, it's a pig to get to.

Am I missing something easy?  It's a simple bulb swap on a 98 A3 1.8T, front passenger side.  Orange bulb with clear lens.  There just seems no sensible way to reach it, getting it out was bad enough.

All advice gratefully received.
