Changing Headlights on VT

[dreadz88]

Been reading here for last month or so, no posts until now.

i decided i want to change my headlights for something brighter, So i've got some Philips Bluevision 4000k's after reccommendation from a bloke at work. only problem being the only cars ive ever had to change headlights on previous have been a toyota landruiser and a hilux which were easy. this looks to be a little more taxing lol.

The space behind the right-side headlight has the battery, which is no real problem to remove i guess, it's just tight space anyway. And the other side has the coolant tube etc.

i read somewhere on these forums that the only other way to do it, if your hands cant fit into the small-ish gaps is to remove the whole front bumper. Is that a big job? and other people ive spoken to have said once you take it off, it never looks the same.

Any advice would be great.

You really should be able to do it, there's not much room but once you unscrew the caps it's a bit easier room wise, you just need to unclip the wire lever thing and out comes the globe. The battery will need to be moved a bit.

What he said!! I changed the globes in my VX and all I did was move the battery, unscrew the caps and with a bit of fiddling I had the globes out then new ones back in! I wouldn't waste your time pulling off the bumper!
