wing mirror bulb replacement

[ald1717]

my little light on the bottom of the wing mirror on drivers side has gone out, im assuming this can be replaced by changing bulb, is it just a matter of pulling the mirror cover and changing the bulb

Single torx screw hidden in the joint, this YT vid shows how to get the bulb out - LED units he fits are great upgrade throw out a lot more light:

If you're tempted by the LED type - before re-assembly check the polarity of the connector is working & also there is only just enough room for the connector in the mirror body

im not interested in the led as of now i have a door lock mechanism thats faulty so the puddle lights stay on for like 20 mins at night, this means i can remove the bulb for the meantime until i get around to changing the lock, then i can fit new bulbs
