Repeater bulb replacement

[wooly350i]

Any body out there know any tricks to replacing the bulbs in the indicators on the side of the wings would be appreciated, ive popped the light pods up and disconnected the battery and I can put my fingers on the bulb holder from behind and it rotates quite freely but how does the bugger come out, have I got to lever the yellow lens cover off and break it no doubt? Cheers, John

If you have the standard side repeaters then they are held in by 2 x spring clips on the housing. If you feel round the inside of the bulb holder you will feel the clip which need to be both squeezed in and pushed through and then the whole repeater can be pulled off from the outside. Disconnect the unit from the spade connector, you can then remove the bulb and replace give the connectors a clean while their out before replacement.

I thought it was a case of a 60 degree turn left and then pull?

As mentioned and as with all things TVR it depends on what you have fitted!!

In the end I sent my lad underneath and he did it for me, said there are a couple of clips which he pinched with two fingers then pulled on the loom wire with another finger and extracted the bulb for me, turned out to be dirty contacts on the bulb, fixed.
