Hi there, I have a 2008 A3, I keep having problems putting the N/S headlight bulb in as I’m not a contortionist lol, the bulb keeps popping out, which has started to burn the plating off the inside as it so awkward to actually get in to lock in, does anyone know without having to get Halfords to fit it at a stupid charge, to actually get it to go in properly???

If ever there was a job for a Victorian street urchin - then this is it. Faced similar issue on cars including BMW i3 and VW Polo Mk 6. At least with BMW - the engineers designed a solution o the wheel-arch liner access hatch. Basically, lift car and remove inner wheel arch liner on your car. Pretty sure that's how it's done. You'll need Torx driver, possible some plastic 10mm nuts too.

I have a 2007 A3 - although its a bit of a faff it just stays in - never had to remove any parts under the wing

Thanks guys
