Anyone know how to acsess the side light bulb. I am planning to change them but How the hell do you get them out. I cant even see where they would be acsessed. Please help.
 
Not shown in the manual. Dont realt want to rip the light out.
 
Now I see your problem -

Remove headlight housing.

Before renewing side light bulb, headlight housing must be cut open at specified location with a sharp carpet cutter.
For subsequent sealing of assembly opening, housing cover is available.

Cut dummy cover out of headlight housing using a sharp carpet cutter.
Turn bulb holder anti-clockwise -arrow- and pull it out of housing.
Release retaining spring and unplug electrical connector at bulb holder.

Installation is carried out in the reverse order; note the following:

Insert new bulb holder with bulb into headlight, taking care not to touch glass bulb with bare hands.
Close opening in headlight with housing cover from repair kit
Click to expand...

I think the cover is 8K0 998 981 but check with your dealer.
 
Ahh this makes sense. I pulled the light out yesterday and found that it is sealed. So would need a cover. Cheers very helpfull.
 
Was hoping to get them off E-bay or online Nearest dealer is a long way from me and would need to order online.
 
I will have a further look. Been on google hunting for the ruber light covers but no luck. Might cut the back out and glue it up untill i find them.
