Interior bulbs

Post by bongolou » Thu Jun 27, 2013 6:43 pm

After successful help from here I managed to fit my side light bulbs. Next? Is upgrading interior bulbs but how to remove the light unit in the front? Tried prising it off but scared to break it.

Push the whole unit to either Left or Right, then pull down the opposite side, once you've done it its obvious but just needs a firm tug when pushed over to the opposite side.

excellent i will give it a push to either side and see what happens. I thought that maybe the case but when you have no clue which was to push pull etc its not easy. Will let you know how i get on.

Pop a small screwdriver in the 4 slots round the outside edge and genlty ease the tags in
The lens will come off and you can change bulbs

Led's are great use less power
