Hey all,
I give up. What’s the trick to removing the H7 bulb from the housing on a 2018 GTI S? It’s not matching what I found online YouTube-wise and seems a little different from earlier models.
First, the bulb housing remains wired, don’t see how to get more than 4 inches of slack or remove it completely. The housing looks different as well from what I’ve seen in video.
Second, I don’t see how to remove the bulb itself. Short of sticking a screwdriver in between to pry to out, it’s not moving. That may be the answer but I’m not keen on breaking this.
I’m more used to wrenching on my Jeep, and there are manuals and videos everywhere for it. Some of the videos have folks taking the whole front apart for a bulb and that seems crazy.
This is what I have and see...
Thoughts? I’ve googled and searched the forum and not found what I’m looking for, so forgive me if I missed it.
