light pod loose

Post by marky »

Just noticed that the left hand light pod is a bit loose and wobbles around a bit.

Off on holiday with the car early sat am and dont have time to investigate before I go.

PLEASE SOMEONE TELL ME THAT IT CANT FALL OFF!!!

It can't fall off. One of the bobbins that should be attached to the body has probably come loose. Easy enough to fix - they're just held on with pop rivets.
