Fitting Silvervisions

[Lou]

Need some help guys, I've managed to get the rear clusters out but cannot get the bulb holder off, does this take some force or is there a specific way to do it?
Don't fancy breaking it lol

 

[TeZ]

Girl..lol tug it like you want it.

 

[Coby.]

Theres just like 4 Clips I think, Can't remeber but just work the Top Clips out and then do the Bottom one's,

flol tez.

They just unclip iirc.

 

[Dean]

you have to push the clips in and pull it out! can be quite awkward, just make sure you dont drop the light!

 

[TeZ]

push the red flaps....

 

[Lou]

Right I'm going back out to attempt it!
Hopefully the front ones aren't as hard!!

 

[kully]

Back ones are dead easy, the fronts are hard in comparison.

Just to do fronts when engine bay is cooler!

 

[TeZ]

[Fletcher]

I really should fit mine.

 

[kully]

[Lou]

Can't get the front ones done yet, they won't budge, can get the left one twisted but it won't come out and drivers side is still a bit too hot to attempt to get my hands in!! lol

 

[Lou]

5 months later I decided to tackle the front ones!!!

After:

Dunno about the cheapest but we get a discount on Power Bulbs which is where I got mine from!

 

[GazM]

Dont know what all the fuss was about, it only took 10 mins to fit all 4. Looks 10x better now though!

Indicator bulbs are easy, it's the sidelight and main beam that's a nightmare. Shredded my hands to bits doing them!!

 

[R20 CWH]

yeh tis a bit tight for space, sometimes its a brut getting the rubber plugs back in and the bulb out as well.

grazed many a knuckle on them

 

[dajones]
