hi all
I'd fancied some new led sidelights, not sure why just did. I got them off ebay for £3 (bargain). I thought they would be fitted in 5 minutes, wrong! it ended more like an hour. First prob was how to get to the back of the sidelight, in the end I went for removing the side panel, this worked but was still tight. Second prob was how to get the bulb holder out of the light unit? it is rubber and feels like it just pushes in, no it turns 90 degrees then pulls out. I found this out after the old blub had fallen into the headlight unit, the only way to get it out was through the headlight bulb hole, what fun (not). I got it out with a piece of wire with stickytape on the end, (not cool).At this point it all went smoothly, new bulbs in ,checked working,sidepanel on , done. They do look good and bright.
If anyone has a better way of getting in there, I would love to know for next time.
