Thumbs up Removing Headlight Washers?

Hi Guys

Just wondered If anyone knows how to remove the headlight washers, so I can take them for colour coding.

Dont want to butcher the front bumper If I can help it.

Cheers

IIRC the headlight unit needs to come out first, then you can access the slider clips at the bottom of the washers (inside bumper).

Cheers mate, I'll give it a whurl,are the headlights easy to remove?, as I have to put in my new 100w bulbs and led sidelights, I might as well do it all at the same time.

I'd be tempted to take the bumper off rather than remove headlights, then you could also remove the number plate holder for colour coding unless this has been done already?

No they are not the same. They are not the same size and they are fitted also in a different position in the front bumper.
