Evening Peeps,

Happy New Year

My neighbour has a 2004 D2 and is wanting to replace the headlight on the driver side , he's not on a forum and asked me to upload a post on his behalf .

I've not yet managed to get round to help , but he saying one on the screws keeps spinning , how can he resolve this, I believe it's the ones on the top of the headlight he's questioning.
 
WHICH SCREW

I was interested in this as I have to remove a headlight. I was able to remove the two bolts into the front panel without trouble, the screw at the side, and pull the light out. However on the other side, the top of one of the bolts has sheared off. If either of these is turning then the captive nut under the front panel must have sheared and I can't see an easy way to remove or drill out the bolt if you can't grip it to prevent it turning.
The crosshead screws at A and B can be removed instead, in my case one of them wouldn't turn. At the grill side of the lights you could perhaps break some of the plastic off which might help access. If your friend is stuck, any specialist will have come across this problem, and know what to do.
