Hi guys,
Anyone got any info on how to change the headlight bulbs? I'm hoping to replace them for some LED ones so the light is white (better for spotting eye shine whilst hunting). The only issue is i can't remove the old ones to check what bulbs they are!

Any idea on how to remove them? Maybe a quick video or a few pics would help me...!
Thanks in advance

On the old 410s they have sealed unit headlights and you can't take the bulbs out.... you will have to fit some aftermarket ones, or samurai headlights... sorry!

So how do I remove the unit? And are there any directly swaddle models from other vehicles? Looks like some sort of catch here?
I guess if the bulb blows i need to replace the entire light???

Yep Robbie is right thats just a twist off one.... my bad I think it was the 83-84 that had the sealed unit.
Just make sure you get the right bulb fitting as it will probably be a P45T
