Me neither

I just did mine and got it sorted fairly easily, apart from the removal of the fixing thats well hidden under the headlight! What a daft place to secure it!

[fiend61]

yup only need an socket extension bar, oh and some bluetack or grease when trying to put it back 

'where oh where do they roll to'   

[farty_towels]

The guys that design these cars are probably great engineers but rubbish mechanics!

While I was under the car straining to reach the fixing, some old guy with a stick and a dog came by chuckling and knocked some odd bit of tat he found in the gutter toward me with his stick, and said "is what you're looking for?", my subdued reply was something like "f**k off, plonker!"

I guess I was lucky to have been able to remove it without having to remove the bumper on mine then, just needed a bit of force and a long screw driver for a bit of leverage though. Mind you it did take me a few hours to change the xenon light bullb and re fit.

I've already forgotten what I said  , what ever it was I realised it wasn't right. We don't have a 'delete' button though.

So . is as close as you can get!
