It was a bit fiddly to replace due to it's location within the lamp but a few twists and it was out.

There's still a few factory fitted bulbs to the car such as main beam , rear number plate lamps and a couple of bulbs still in the rear lights so lets see if we can get to 20 years !
You're very lucky -unbelievable! I've change around 10-20 in mine in 17 years! Bulb quality today is not a patch!
