Lights.

Just taken me 3 hours to take out the spotlamp on the nearside as it had some condensation in it,
I'm sure with a little more thought they could have made it a REALLY difficult task !!!!!!!
What a PITA.

Have a look at changing the nearside headlamp bulb. Now that was a b!tch. Over the years I have found that there are quite a few jobs on these cars that are inordinately difficult. It's as though they were designed this way to discourage owners from 'tinkering'.

It's not just these cars that suffer from such problems. On the Renault Modus, for example, you have to remove the bumper to change the headlight bulbs...

[BennyD]

I find that by breaking ones arm in five places gets the job done in minutes...

Headlamp bulbs are a doddle Benny. I don't understand your difficulty. Simply jack the car up, lift the flap, remove the cap and you're basically there.

Well I've finally managed to set mine to an acceptable height both sides! I must have moved them ten times in the last few months...

Fiat stilo n/s bulb. You either take the bumper off or mince your hands to pieces.
