We've had our Roomster2 1.9 TDi for around 3 months now. In that time we have covered 2K miles at an average of 44 mpg (75% town / 25% motorway).
As with my 2 previous Mk1 Octavia vRS's I decided to "upgrade" the H7 headlight bulbs to Osram nightbreakers. I managed to fit them yesterday, but cannot work out how to fit the matching sidelight bulbs supplied with the night breakers.
I have searched the forum and "googled" but could not find any advice.
page 212 in my owners manual covers checking the oil ! Page 256 covers "fuses and light bulbs" but just says "remove the protective cap and grasp the bulb holder and pull it out of the headlight". This does not seem possible however given the limited access behind each headlight.

The place of the sidelight bulb holder (under the B cap in the pic) is too narrow, tunnel-like and holder is tightly mounted. At the first time I couldn't managed take out too.
But, I used my both index finger to grab and pull hard the sidelight bulbholder. Don't try to pull it from the wiring, feel the sidelight bulb holder with your finger tips.
I also use Osram NB main bulb and Osram Blue sidelights...
