Can anyone help me find a guide on how to change the main headlight bulb on a 98 W210 on the drivers side :)

Cheers

I usually remove the top part of the air filter by unclipping the clips all round and moving it out of the way. Then there are two clips holding the back of the lamp assembly in place. Once these are unclipped it should drop away quite easily. It's still a bit cramped - especially if you have big hands!

Thanks after spending about 20 mins and ruining a perfectly good shirt I have completed the task. Does this mean I'm technically a mechanic? :):):)

Seriously cheers for the help guys !
