how do you change the rear indicator bulbs on a round head light mk 6?
is it worth changing the orange indicator bulb for a osram diadem bulb?
the rear lights dont have quite the "fried egg" effect on them as the front does so perhaps its not worth it ?
i am waiting to receive the front ones soon
also is the rear indicator bulbs the same as the front?
is the front ones easy to change?

Hello,

There are some DIY guides on here to help with some of your questions

I hope this helps......

how do you change the rear indicator bulbs on a round head light mk 6?
As i remember, pull back the boot carpet. Then unscrew the light housing

is it worth changing the orange indicator bulb for a osram diadem bulb?

I have no idea, but i would think this would be pointless as they just flash orange anyway

the rear lights dont have quite the "fried egg" effect on them as the front does so perhaps its not worth it ?
Personally i think its a pointless change

is the front ones easy to change?
I had to take the front bumper off mine, depends on how close the bay is to the light fittings and if you can put your hands in there or not

Hope this helps in some way
