Default Changing Indicator Bulb

Feel stupid for asking but how do you change the bulb in the front indicator? Does the lense pop off?

Had the warning to checked all light. Got a number plate light out (just one) so thats done, Rear indicator light was becoming more white than orange so replaced that but the front one I can only guess the lense comes off but not sure how too and dont want to break it.

Cheers

You replace the front indicator bulbs from behind the lamp unit. To gain access, you must remove the flimsy plastic panel fastened underneath the front bumper/wheel arch liner.
On pre-facelift models, replace the bulb without removing the lamp. The bulbholder has a bayonet fastening in the case. On facelift models, you can do the same, or remove the lamp unit by releasing the metal clips and pushing the lamp out from behind.
