I dunno. I had a 2002 Renault Laguna for a while, years back
I'd have paid you any fucking money to change the cunting headlight bulbs on that. They seemed to necessitate removal of the timing belt and the aircon system first.

It cost more than a grand to change the timing belt on the fucking thing.
Mind you, they are incredibly good in crashes, which is lucky, as my girlfriend at the time span it off the A1M at something over 80 and put it down a 20 ft embankment backwards into a tree and walked out without a scratch.

Don't get it serviced at an alfa garage, standard fiat parts will fit.
