LOOLOLLLOLOLOLOLLOLOLOLOLO
AHHAHAAHAAAHHAHAAHHAAHHAAHAHAHA
ONE HOUR OF LABOUR LOLLLOLOLOLOLOLO
it toke me to take off the 2 front light less than 10 mins + 2 mins each to change the bulb.
BUT no need to take off the light, just stick your hand in there ( if they small) and turn it
WOWOWOWOOWOWO 135..!!! for a freakin reg bulb.. they much be high.. guess thats y they are stealers
OH.. i think you can buy your bulb at your local shop any auto shop.. just bring the bulb with u when you go there.

Glad you got it sorted, if I had sen the post earlier I would have told you how to do it. I just did mine a couple of weeks ago (Invisibulbs from Brabus) and it took me less than a min per light - very quick, and I do NOT have small hands. Good job saving yourself some $$$$$$
P.S. remember the Dealer charges 1 hr of labor MINIMUM so even if it takes them 2 secs, you get charged 1 hr. So if they happen to fart in the direction of your car expect to see a bill of at least $100
