I just turned to auto lights off on mine and the indications on the dash and rear lights all turned off, not sure if that helps?

I was just reading your build thread to where you separated the lens from the main housing.

I might do it that way so I still have lights.

@SharpyClio what was the duct you purchased to do yours with?

Looks a bit more of an oval shape.

It’s was an intake from a Vauxhall Astra

Decent fit, just need to get decent adhesive as mine came away as it never seemed to set: I was going to redo it but got the blanks. Should do it really in case of a wet track day and I need lights.

Perfect, thanks!

Still got a few weeks until the respray is completed so need little odd jobs to do so things one of them.

Presuming you just separated the lens, drilled a hole and stuck the duct in place.
Reseal the lens and good to go?

Yep. I got some small metal clips to help hold the lens to the backing while it set but I just left them in place.

@SharpyClio ehats the technique to separating the lens?

Is it just these clips holding it in place which seem to be glued on?

Will a hairdryer be enough heat or do I need to put it in the oven?

Also - did you remove the light behind where the duct is and if so, how did it look inside the light fitting when you had finished.
