Got my haynes book, but it doesnt show how to get the wiring conector off the rubber seal? ive pulled pretty damn hard and was wondering if there was a trick to doing it?! dont want to break the bloody thing

(btw ive disconected both the 3 prong power connectors to the headlight unit (one on the right and one on the left of the rubber seal) so its just this bugger that wont come out)

its the passenger side as well, so dont need to remove the intake pipe

Cheers

3 pin connecter pulls off
rubber seal should just pull off
then flick the metal bulb holder type thing sideways and remove bulb

but if you mean sidelight? then it should do a half turn and pull out

dunno if thats anyhelp?

On the n/s sidelight you might need to move the power steering fluid tank for access.

totally off topic but thats my input lol
