how do I change the front indicator bulb on a Ford Ka?

How do I change the front indicator bulb on my Ford Ka Collection 2003? The back of the lights is not accessible. A guy at Halfords told me that they are not allowed to do it as you have to take the bumper off ??

I changed the nearside bulb (the tricky one) on my mom's 2004 KA yesterday. Heres how..

1) Unscrew the 3 screws across the top of the grill panel.
2) You will then be able to remove the flimsy black panel that sits on the nearside (2 of the screws go through this)
3) You now have decent acess to the bulb holder which sits at 90 degrees to the light unit. (rather than the usual rear fitting)
4) The bulb holder is removed by twisting it clockwise (I think)..

To be fair, I found this to be pretty easy and a lot simpler than previous models.

Its relatively simple, but you do need someone with petite hands to do it, Basically all you have to do is pop the bonnet, and as you see the headlight u can see the orange of the indicator , to remove this bulb to replace it you approach it from the side facing into the car and i beleive you have to twist a cylinder to the left and you pull out the bulb with it, simply swop the bulbs put the cylinder back in twist it shut, and that should be all.
