Sounds like someone has bodged it in the past. The standard orange ones just pop off and the bulb is in a holder. Post up some pics maybe someone else has similar ones and can help.

Well that's totally confused me. Just took my side repeater lens off and it would seem that the bulb is inside the bodywork and lens glued on to the body.

Anyone know how to get to the repeater bulb to change it ?

Cheers

AJ
is it oval or round?

Ahhh, well i took the ovals off and the bulb seems to be mounted in the bodywork with the oval glue over the top. I looked under the bonnet, under the car, in the footwells...no sign of how the hell to get to it, ha. I'm trying to change them for clear side repeaters. Now i've changed the bulbs they only work if you pull them half way out, which means the lens doesn't sit flush.

Never simple, always fun. ha.
