Tail Light Removal

Postby Spitfia on Mon, 06 Feb 2017 9:20 +0000

Anyone got any tips for removing the tail light from a wellbody tub? i have removed the two bolts but the retaining clips seem to be giving a lot of resistance so i decided to stop pulling and ask the experts before i break something

Cheers

Just pull it straight backwards
There are 2 pins in rubber grommets

No worries ill give it another go... do you have to put a lot of force on it to get the pins to release?
