dmad Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 I've done the searches, linked across to other sites and so on but couldn't see a simple definition of how to remove the side repeaters. I don't need to get the whole things off, just the outer lenses....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C4 SUP Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 Prize them off with a screwdriver, but be carefull of the paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 they come off by hand, I put my smoked side repeaters on at Box Hill with no tools. Push hard at the front of the repeater and push in the direction of the back of the car, it pops out nicely. Some aftermarket side repeaters can be difficult to re-attach, so it may need a bit of sanding to make it go back in. JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmad Posted April 22, 2003 Author Share Posted April 22, 2003 Thanx for the quick replies boys - looks like brute force pays off sometimes. I was paranoid about either snapping something, or etching a nice line on the paintwork... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon F Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 I unbolted the plastic wing-liners enough to get my hand up behind the repeater. I did, however, see this illustrious member, change his side repeaters in a Stevenage car park. Hopefully, he will be along shortly to explain the hazard that he encountered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Cargill Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 It's really quick, as JB says just push back and pull out. One end has clip that compresses and lets it pop out. I did one side OK, then on the other side I dropped the loom back inside the wing With help we got it out, but it's best to make sure it doesn't fall in the first place.

B1SEP Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 Ive probably fitted about 30 sets of these to supras Pull the lense forwards towards the front of the car and she pops out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I managed to drop the wire inside the wing as well, had to fish it out with a bent coathanger... Apart from that it was easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
