Anyone got any idea how to get in to replace the bulbs at the front of the car? I am not even sure if they do anything if they are blinkers or what. But I got bulbs for them but cant find a way in. No scews on the front and from the underside it looks like they are blocked off by panels. The only way to get in looks like from the wheelwell.......but that cant be right to change a bulb........there are like 30 bolts to take out there. Any help?
Thanks in advance!!

you have to take out the headlights there should be four bolts and they should pop right out and then just disconnect the bulbs and put the new ones in

what year cavy do you have. I know on the 03-04's there is a plastic flange above the headlamp assembly, theres 6 little black clips that hold it in place. your car might be similar so try that, thats how i replaced my headlights.

Lol front headlights are fine.. the diagram in the owners manual is great at that.. NOW TRY TO REPLACE THE BACK LEFT BLINKER!!!!
The right one is easy just turn the assembly and it pops out the bulb but the left one.. they don't tell you in the manual but you have to unbolt the whole assemble to remove the light because just turning it and the bulbs plug gets jammed in the metal bracket.... the bracket on the left side is smaller then on the right side...

tail lights are easy, go in through the trunk, remove the 3 small bolts and the whole lens assembly comes out, then just pop off the harness and plug in your new bulb and your done.
