Front RHS sidelight bulb has become barely visible on my 1997 Lantra Estate. Can't see an obvious way to change it. Any help? How found connector but how do you get the bulb out?

It's easy. Just pull the bulb holder out of the headlight unit and then pull the bulb out of the socket. It is just a slide-in fit. Sometimes I find it easier to disconnect the main bulb connector if it's in the way; just pull it back. The sidelights do go dim after a time; the element gets thin and forms black deposits on the bulb glass. Time to change it before it blows.
