To replace the front side lights, indicators and fog lamp bulbs, you need to remove the light unit that is below your headlamps.
First off you will need to remove the road wheel and then remove the wheel arch liner from the front of the wheel arch.
With that out of the way, from under the front of the bumper, look straight up at the back of the lamp unit and you will see a silver coloured (10mm I think) bolt, undo this. Then push the light unit from behind and it will unclip itself and come forward out of the bumper. Unclip the three connectors and withdraw the lamp unit completly, you can then change over the bulbs. Fitting is just the reverse process. Repeat of the other side!
Probably took me 30 minutes per side to do once I figured out how it all came apart!
Here is the diagram of the front reproduced courtesy of Eurospares.co.uk
The lamp unit is No4 and the bolt I am referring to, to remove is shown is No5.
And the wheel arch liners, again courtesy of Eurospares.co.uk:
You need to remove No48 and No30
While you are in the nearside arch, you will find the airbox, take out the 4 screws (becareful as they rust solid sometimes!!) and you can check on the air filter
I hope this helps with the changing of these bulbs on the front.
The rear light clusters are way easier!
