i dont have any sidelights

Postby johhnnie » Sun Apr 17, 2011 8:06 pm

Hi folks , Can anyone tell me if the side lights are meant to be down in the bumper where the indicators are ? , After having a look around there seems to be only the indicater bulb wiring and nothing else there , I dont have any sidelights and i need to get them working before mot is due ,,,, Not sure if the last owner removed them when they fitted a bov front bumper ..

sidelights are within the cluster with the indicators. first thing to do is check the bulbs. two screws hold the lens in place.undo and pull sraight out pretty straight forward. then check fuses etc. just to rule out common problems.

Facelifts have them in the headlight clusters, pre facelifts are in the bumper where the foglights would be.
