Took literally 2 minutes once you know what you're doing :)

The result:





PS could I use the white bulbs with the black repeater or is that illegal?

twist the bulb holder out the original ones, twist it into the new ones, plug it back in and push the new ones on

Ok, taken the old one's off (came off easy (y) ) and I really can't see how the new one will fit? Got some pics...:boggle:







Any advice appreciated! Cheers.

^^
prise it forwards and out at the rear edge

oh btw I broke one while removing it. :lol:

just be careful when doing it to avoid a 5mins job to become a 30min one.
Disconnect the wiring plug from the light but dont let it fall back inside the wing

Take your time and hold tight it

that's pretty easy to do :)

Push them towards the headlight, this squeezes a clip behind the wing, you should then be able to lift them towards you and then unplug them from the wiring in the wing.

Alterntatively, remove the wheel arch lining, lean up and release the clip from behind :)#

Fitting new ones is basically reverse of removal tbh :)

Got some smoked side repeaters, well ordered them yesterday so they should be here tomorrow.

Anyway just been out and looked at the orange nipples now, and it may sound stupid but I really can't figure out how you take them off :lol: :(

Also one they're off I assume putting the new ones on is easier?:thumbs:
