Side repeaters help

[harry1972m]

Have changed my side repeaters for more modern looking oval ones but unfortunately manged to snap one of the wires and obviously cant access it from the small hole in the wing so does anyone know how I can access the wires i.e. if I take off the wheel arch cover will I find the wires there !!!!

Thanks in advance

Can you get access by pulling back the carpets in the bottom of the drivers footwell?

Thats the way, in through the footwells but be warned its awful tight and you will probably loose some skin..
Have fun,
Carl.

Will try that tonight gents - thanks for your help.

All sorted - many thanks as I would not have tried that route first so saved me a lot of hassle and time - and yes I am now minus a considerable amount of skin from my hands but the lenses look nice though !!!!!

can we see a picture?
Need to change mine as well and was wondering if I wanted to go to the classic orange brick or to slick oval ones...

Hi axe,

Nice one Graham..
Axe, I fitted mine last year, same a Chim ones (hint get em from scrappy off a Ford Ka or Fiesta) cost me 4 squid, you will need the bulb holders as they are different too. Take a look at my profile pic, I really think they suit the lines of the car much better than the brick. They do have different lugs on and require a different shaped hole, you could file the body to make them fit properly but I didnt wanna do that so I cut the lugs off of the new units and stuck them in with some double sided sticky suff.
