As one of the couple of jobs I've got to sort out before putting the Griff up for sale in tip top condition, I've got to replace one of the driving lamps as it's cracked. I've got the replacement unit on order but the question is how easy a job is it to do? Or in other words, could I do it easily on my own or should I get Austec to sort it out whilst they're respraying it??

Any comments much appreciated, thanks - Chris.

Just replaced one myself this very afternoon - easy peasy. Get on your tum infront of the car, reach behind the lamp & unscrew 3 plastic wing nuts that fasten on the end of the sprung studs. Draw the lamp toward you, disconnect the wires and it`s free. slip the rubberband off the outside and the lamp comes free from the carrier. As all good manuals say, assembly is reverse proceedure!
