Ka headlight

IIRC one side can *just* be done by hand, but the other side you have to take the wheel off and take the arch liner out, then get it from underneath.. I'm sure someone will be along shortly to tell you which side is easiest!

I can do both sides by hand, and I've not got small hands (think I'm around an 11 or 12 in gloves). It's a matter of dexterity and practice - first time took ages, after a while I could do a pair in under 10 minutes - still a ludicrous time to change a bulb, but faster than dismantling the car. There's no need to remove arch liners, but I've been told it does help.

Awkward little sods, aren't they?! Jacking the car up and removing the wheel arch lining helps access, but it is possible to do it without - just takes practice. There's a knack to it, which is kinda detailed here:

Kinda. Mostly that's an advert for my page... Anyway my trick is to keep the weather seal partially attached, it's easier that way.
