Don't they snap everytime you remove the lights? I don't have any one mine, need a set everytime a bulb blows.

I can see it being a lot easier. I've not yet needed to change the headlight bulb yet but have changed the sidelights for LEDs. Much easier with the headlight out.

i know wat you mean on the 1,4/1.6 16v, on the offside headlight, but you can still get to it, ull find that the original ones in the car will snap as they go brittle, but when new ones are fitted you shouldnt have this problem, ive never snapped any

I would go to a Vauxhall place but my car isn't roadworthy right now!
