so was i!!

wondered what had happened to them for a few minutes, then realised my error

[SiDaBa]

Just to bring this subject back to life, if anyone like me having been following the expected dates for these lights to be launched i think the time may finally be close.

This is typical as on Friday i cancelled my order as i need the money for other means at this time, how ever just went to www.fk-automotive.de and FINALLY they list their own lights on there which means it can't be long before they hit the shops! I've been checking there quite frequently since march though admittedly lately i gave up till this evening!!

So the basic point of this message is.... IT CAN'T BE LONG NOW!!

are these the leaky ones?

[SiDaBa]

are these the leaky ones?

I dunno they're headlights and not out yet so haven't been tested, the tail lights on mine are leaky and by FK, but i'll find out when and if i get the headlights whether they leak too

[carmadaaron]

leaky fronts would be soo dodgy!

If you mean "h1" they're the full beam lights which is the smaller circle from the outside. If it is Joy's photos will be no use (they're the H7's, the dipped head lights - big circle)

[SiDaBa]

Not much long later here are the pics of the H1.

Bit blurry some photos but i've only just taken them.



The initial Red indicates the clips, the second Red arrow is shoing you to push the wire cage to the side to release it from the clips.

The cage stays attached and flips down which is indicated by the Blue arrow.

If your interested the Green arrow indicates the side light bulb.




This shows the bulb once it is out. Good hard tug from it's connector will seperate the the bulb from the connector (common sense - hold the connector from the black clip and the bulb from the base when trying to seperate the two).

Thank you very much for your help.
I´m going to try taking them off.

Merry Christmas

can some one post some pictures on how to change front indicator bulbs please?

got my sidelights sorted.... after 30mins of twisting my arm in awkward postions

cheers

Indicators are the easiest out of the lot of them. They're on what i can only describe as a large plastic ice cream stick! Just twist them and it will shift slightly and then they just come out on the stick.

is this stick in the headlight compartment (ie do i need to take off the round plastic/rubber cover?, like i did with the sidelights...)

thx again

[SiDaBa]

It's the one below the headlight rubber cap, the indicator cap is actually a screw cap.
