  • How do you remove the headlight assembly?

    Hi Guys.
    I lent my DS3 to my wife the other day and she had a minor bump. Left the handbrake off and it roled into a removal van. Thought it was just a small scratch on the front bumper but I have since realised that the passenger side headlight assembly is cracked at the back. Only realised after paying the other owner for his minor repair so I'm not claiming on the insurance. Unfortunately it's not possible to repair. I could take it to the dealer but imagine it will be cheaper to replace myself. Does anyone have instructions or a link with details of how to remove the whole light assembly on that side? Is it an easy job?
    I have had a good look on the internet with no luck so far.
    Links to spares would also be usefull. Think I'm looking at 100 approx.
    Thanks in advance.

    Bump ! You manage to get it out and if so how ?
    After having my car repaired the garage has machine polished my car and left one of my headlight with deep swirls and
    scratches

      I've not seen a guide for removing the headlights, Bigfeet might be able to help, I checked his file repository but there was nothing obvious
