Quick Side Light Question?

Postby NewSuboy » Tue Apr 20, 2010 8:42 pm

Hi guys

What are the side light bulbs on the 1?

Are they standard 501 wedge bulbs?

If so anyone know the best place to get some nice white/blue LED's bulbs

Thanks

they are just the push in type, no idea where to get LED ones from a local motor factors or halfrauds which will cost you a lot more

you have to remove the two 10 mm bolts from the top of the unit and remove the grill to take the 10 mm headed bolt out then remove the two clips per side holding the bumper on to get the light out, then the light needs to pushed forward next to the wing as its held in with push clips to the wing.
