Default Re: Stilo headlights

Dumb question! Have you read the owner's manual?

I've put my Stilo Abarth to bed for the night so I don't want to wake her
now :-)

From my last read I'm pretty sure there were instructions for replacing
headlamp bulbs.

Didn't need to check the workshop manual.

On my Stilo Abarth on the UK offside I can replace all bulbs in a matter of
minutes. On the nearside/battery side then things are a little tighter
because one would certainly need to remove the large battery cover. At
worst I would have to remove the battery and battery box. The only case
where bumber removal is required that I can see is when the whole light unit
has to be removed, e.g. broken front lens/plastic glass. This is confirmed
by my recollection of the service manager saying the people get upset by
stone damage to the headlamp glass requires the headlamp to be replaced
which also requires the bumper to be moved back and thus also requires the
engine undertray etc. to be released as well.
