Hi All,

I have a 01/02 Pug 206 that I've owned for 2 weeks and need to change the headlamp bulbs. The markings under the bonnet definitely say H4.

All cars I've had in the past required H7 and changing the bulbs are very easy as the wire locking mechanism is one lever your just pull down.

With these frosted lights, the wire lock looks totally different. It has 2 wires instead of ones (they are on either side, holding the bulb in place).
No matter what direction I push or pull, I can't get the wires to come off or unlock the bulb.

How do you do it?

same as every other bulb lol.

just look at it till you figure it out, this however usually requires the attention of atleast 3 male homosapiens. a few beers and burgers won't delay the process, but instead will 99.99999% of the time help the male homosapiens to come to a more realistic and truer plan of action. the plan of action is not always correct, but a plan is a plan and we as a nation would have got nowhere over the last 65,000,000 years if no plan, great or bad, had never taken place.

hope this helps mate.
