My 2002 V70 (non turbo) right (passenger) front signal bulb needs replacement. I was able to remove the electrical wire from it by depressing its spring lock with two screwdrivers, but alas the bulb is still in its grey plastic holder in the chassis. After moving a few cables and shifting the window washer fill tube, i can barely get a needlenose visegrip on the plastic bulb holder. Is it a bayonet critter and i need to rotate it CCW 90 degrees? Do i also need to push in (gulp) at the same time??? I did the other side of the car 3 years ago but was not wise enuf to record my method. I don't want to break the plastic in my (%$*#@) "enthusiasm".
I would dearly appreciate any comments of your experiences.
