chp03bcd Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Was looking for some advice on how to remove the old orange side indicators as i want to replace them with new clear ones. They seem pretty well fixed to the car but the general consensus is that is is an easy job to swap them over - any helpful suggestions as to how to go about it?

gjp Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 You need to slide something between the body and the light to push a clip so it pops out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveR Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 On pre-facelifts, a firm push forwards (i.e. towards the front of the car) will release the plastic clip so that the complete unit can be removed. Twist the bulb holder from the back; swap for new, gucci clear repeaters; clip back into the wing; job done! Not sure on facelift models, but I doubt it's very different - they need to be simple on all cars so the bulbs can be changed easily.
