| D2S Xenon bulbs What's the procedure for changing the D2S xenon bulbs? I may have a little project on my hands!  Have a feeling that the battery may need disconnecting due to the high voltage igniters!

| Disconnect leads, take of ballast, unclips I think. Bulb should 'just' change pretty much. Might be able to find something in the bulb-changing bit of the manual (although that avoids xenons, due to safety reasons related to what you already posted )

| Yeah, the manual says to take it to the dealer! Think there's one connector to the ballast box, so that should eliminate any sort of power going thro' it. N/S ballast box is screwed to the back of the headlamp cover & the O/S ballast box is under the front slam panel. I guess there should be some sort of bulb holder at the other end of the lead?
