Don't hate me but it was sideways rain and cold so i got the halfords bloke to change my bulb today after it went. Hate driving around with one out. Indid explain to him its in the wheel arch just to save him some time. Hour and a half later bulbs were done. Hour 15 mins on one 15 on the other haha. Felt bad for him but i wasetn doing it in the rain. I think his drama was he took the metal clip on the plastic cover totally off. Ah well done for another year or so.
Halfords bulb change
- Thread starter Rorybeanbutler
- Start date
He probably couldn't fit the covers back so binned those and the flappy wheel arch access panel will soon grind away and be silent again...
No no i got out to watch as i was worried. Its all back in correctly

45 minutes to change a battery on a Vauxhall Corsa.
30 minutes to get the correct wiper blade for the Z4 then charged me twice for the wiper blades I'd originally bought.
No clue whatsoever about oil even after looking it up on their system.
I only use them when I absolutely have to.

I bet they knew what to charge tho!
Tbf they sell the right bulbs 241 and i was not getting down on my hands and knees in the wind and rain to do what i knew was a really awkward job. Hes done it correctly just took him a while to figure it out haha. Was really into his cars too owns a BMW 2002 looked mint.
It is the most awkward bulb change. My c30 volvo was a 20 second job.
