Head lights
One of the headlights of my 2003 TD5 has blown and I need to replace it... Considering the amount of work to replace it, I might consider replacing it and the rest with something more powerful... Any suggestions?

Best

Go for the Wipac Crystal head lamps, nightbreaker bulbs and a stainless bezel, cheap upgrade Very Happy

Thanks for the advice.
It’s just a blown bulb... and it’s only fifteen minutes to change it... just thirteen more than it should be.
I was just wondering what options if any I have...
Now if only I could remember where is the screwdriver...

If it's the nearside you can reach the bulb from the engine bay without dismantling anything. The offside is harder because of the air filter but I seem to recall doing the same on that side.
