Seen as this has been asked lately, and the only information on the net is to remove your front bumper and headlight , ive decided to do a step by step guide to help anyone who finds themselves stuck when changing the dipped beam bulbs on their Mk4's.

Isn't the other side (off side) the difficult one (1.8T also)? I have scraped my hands and sworn at that side. I managed it, but couldn't get the clip back on. I have dinner plate sized hands which might not help, but pianist's fingers, so should be ok thinking about it!

The o/s one ive always found the easiest even with big hands. Its the n/s one you need to get your tool box out and move the battery.

Anybody here have the original Xenons in MKIV Golf? I have an LHD V6 with them but one is gone. The space there is tight and I am having hard time changing the bulbs. There is somekind of ring retaining the xenon bulb, which I assume I should twist. Have tried with moderate force but it ain't moving.
