Halfords change them for free.

You mean optional fitting is included in the inflated price they
charge.

When I picked one up in there on Saturday evening (stress
purchase, spare was duff and I hate driving SWMBOs car at the
best of times, let alone with a headlight out) they wanted 7 quid
to change the bulb for me.

Yep, that's my indirect experience too, rellie bought 8quid headlamp
bulb (an H4 ffs!) and was offered an option to fit for another
8quid or so which was declined.



Had to replace the rear light cluster a while back. I ended up showing
the ford garage apprentice how to do it


Well on Friday I watch one of Stoneacre's apprentice mechanic run a
customers 61 plate car into a wall:-)
