Commencal24 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 There should be two little clips at the back of your side repeaters, I think it was a case of pushing down on them and they should easily come out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjt Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I fitted these to my Mk1.5. They look so much better than the amber ones. The biggest problem is getting the old ones out. Haynes simply says push them down, as Matt said above, but in my experience it wasn't that easy. If I remember correctly (and it's a long time ago) there are two plastic hooks at the top edge and a plastic springy clip at the bottom. The trick is to push downwards far enough to disengage the hooks but I found the springy clip would "bottom out" before they were clear of the aperture. If you get hold of the new ones first you'll be able to see how they're held in. Don't forget you'll need amber bulbs. White would be an MOT fail. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commencal24 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Or even better Philips silvertec bulbs 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
