TAILGATE BRAKE LIGHTS, HOW DO I GET AT THEM???

Hi Guys,

I seem to have a blown bulb in the R/H rear brake light in the tailgate, any advice on how to get at it, do I need to remove the door card in the tailgate?

Cheers,

Dave

PS, nice to see S R Burnsey still popping up on the site!

Hi Dave
Yes you need to remove the door card and the globes are T20 wedge type they are a bit hard to get at but once done forget for a few years.
Also make sure they are put in tight as they are a bast**d to get out if the globe falls into the lense ares.

Cheers Dave,

thanks for that, you're not coming over this way in the next few days, perhaps you could show me how

Maybe a bit far!! I'll see how I get on myself

Thanks again,

Dave

if your paying i'll be there

Hi Dave,

in the end it seemed like to big of a job and I really couldn't be arsed, so as an alternative I have got my mother in law running behind with a torch with a bit of red cellophane over the bulb.

Should work a treat if only the old dear could only keep up, maybe I could attach a rope (I would hate to loose that torch it is a really nice one).

Thanks for your suggestions though and if it does'nt work out I may have to send you the air fare.

try the missus she's younger and would be able to keep up a lot easier, tie the rope yo the torch that way you won't loose it
cheers dave

Not a good idea, she's also the cook!!!
