Default Help! Step by step instructions to replace bulbs?

I want to put in my philips high beam bulbs and my blue side light bulbs, but I cant see how to get to the bulbs from the bonnet? Can someone give me some simple step by step instructions?

Done a search but found nothing useful

Cheers

Through the holes where the PRM would draw air from ?

You may need to ask Squeak to give you a small hand.

Hate to state the obvious, but the instructions are in the handbook. Thats how I did mine.

Incidentally, I fitted a chin spoiler yesterday so I may now stop claiming to be pathetic at mod stuff.

If you search you should find a long post I did on changing the headlight bulbs, with a picture. Gives some very helpful tips - speaking as someone who's lost a lot of skin doing this more than once...
