For all those wiring gremlins we love, this is the place to discuss them.

Front indicator housing

Post by Grant »

Hi,

I cant see how to remove the front indicator housing. The two bolts at the back, one of which has the earth cable (i think) to it, just go round and round. Any suggestion how to get behind and hold whatever it rotating behind. Looked at removing the fog lamp below but that also doesn't want to come out.

Regards

Grant

Yes - they are nuts and bolts - you have to get a socket on each end. They are attached to the bumper, but I can't remember if you can see them through the pod bay as Stu says - defo worth a try, otherwise it's bumper off.

I'm sure I've done it with bumper on. So there is a way.
