Try as I might, I can't seem to get the front handlebar/headlight shield off in order to access the bulb. I unscrewed a couple screws that seem to be in that area but it won't budge. It sort of seems like I have to take off my rearviews in order to access this thing. Anyone have any experience with this? Much appreciated!

No one? I'm sure the chassis is similar to other Chinese scoots... anyone know how to take those other ones apart?

Yep, sure looks like the mirrors have to come off as well as underneath I think I see some screws and bolt. You would think they would make the lens to be held on with a couple of screws from the outside. They make things so difficult to get at. Alleyoop

Dang! Was hoping that wasn't the case... yeah not sure why. Maybe to prevent bulb thefts?

On that specific scooter:
Remove both mirrors. Remove two screws on the left and right of the steering stem, on the bottom of the movable part. Remove two screws by the handgrips underneath the handlebars. There are three internal clips. Use a flat screwdriver (with a cloth to avoid scratching) to slip between the seam at the top center, above the speedo cluster. There are two more clips at the end of the same seam, right by the handgrips. Front cover assembly should fall right off. It will be attached by the headlight wiring harness. The two side bulbs are removable by doing a 1/4 twist CCW then pull straight out. Once you look its fairly self-explanatory.
Mirrors use 14mm wrenches. Both are standard thread. Not all mirrors are standard thread, some are reverse.
