Default How do you.....

replace a dead right indicator bulb on the XR8? The indicator lens (unlike an other car I have owned doesn't have screws on the outside. I can't see how to get to it to change the bulb the front bar allows no room to get to it and inside the bonnet the headlight assembly blocks access. Does the indicator "pop out" with some leaverage? Help welcomed guys, most of us must have done a bulb change. The manual doesn't seem to address this at all.

Yep, it's nearly as much fun as changing a headlight globe on the drivers side in the XRs. Need very small hands (or remove/move battery).
