Smart car replace headlamp remove front panel to change head lamp bulb !

[365drills]

So how long would it take YOU to change a headlamp bulb?

Bonnet up... Pull out the back of the headlamp.... Swap Bulbs...

10 minutes?

Of course it would. But you dont own a SMART car do you? I found out the hard way that a blown headlamp bulb will take an hour and a half.

In fact it took me so long I made a little bloggie video for the "Smart Car Owners Forum" and heres why its such a pain in the aaaaa for us to perform a little minor repair.

Hope your fog lamps don't need a bulb on the Disco ... you have to remove the wheel then wheel arch!!

Gone are the days of fixing your car on the front drive with a beer in one hand and a roll of duct tape in the other.
