Has anyone ever actually noticed how impossible this is? :D :lol: Hehehe! I need to change one of my little parker bulbs.

I have a GSi with ABS and air con. The drivers side bulb is simple to get to, but the passengers side is a nightmare! I've got the ABS block, an air con tube, a fuse block and some other big black cannester thing there. There is NO way ANYONES hand is fitting down there! The only things I can think of is either:
*Taking off the whole front bar, then removing the headlight
*Getting at it from underneath.

Haven't jacked her up yet, but is that how you're meant to get at it?? From underneath? That is the only logical thing, I'd guess. Doubt GM would make it so that you have to take the bar off!? Still doesn't look like it's going to be to easy to get to from below either!

Any help guys. Ta. :D
