Default S40 2002 sidelight problem

New to the forum, so hello!

I'v got a 2002 s40 and I need to change the sidelight bulb in the headlight cluster.

I cant sus out how to get at it though as there's what seems to be the xenon/neon pack bolted to the back of it. and there's stickers telling me high voltage ( to do with the main headlight's )

Any advice greatly apreciated as the garage wanted £70 to change the bulb!

Thanks.

Is this the small plastic light housing to the outside of the glass headlight lens? If so, at least on the US models, there is a phillips-head screw behind both housings that hold them together. You can see it looking straight down from above and to the rear of both housings. Loosen but do not remove the phillips-head screw. Now gently pull the small plastic housing forward. Do not pull up or sideways, but straight forward the same direction as the bulb is pointing. That housing has 2 small straight plastic pieces on the outside that fit into the metal of the fender and a U shaped piece that fits under the phillips-head screw.
