Post by rwb »

Hi,

What type of bulbs are the number plate ones, and how the f*k do you change them?

Ta.
(MOT booked for Monday. Failed on a number plate bulb last year, so thought I'd check before I go this year.)

Current: 407 2.2 HDi 170 & C6 2.7 HDi.
Former: 406 1.9 TD; 406 HDi 90; 407 2.2 160; 307cc 180; 508 HDi 140.
