Adaptive light defective

[stuartbarriskell]

Right so, that warning light on the dash was actually one of the cornering lamps for everyoe info...


Echoing very loudly Custerdome's reply on my "Get out of Jail" post...

RTFM Stuart !....

That said, it's a bumper off job to get at the lamps. What a ridiculous situation, I wish they had let me know, I'd have whizzed round to my local Motor Factors or Halfords and picked up a couple of +130s/150s and had them swap out both for high intensity lamps rather than that shitey yellowish glow normal filament halogens give out.. but a cheap fix..

I also noticed this today, clocked it after I took the car back to my office, I can't say it was them and I hope if they did have anything to do with it they would have declared straight off... now have to pay Eastend Coach works to whip off the bumper and replace whatever is bust, nothing visible on the bumper that I can see, it started getting dark just after I noticed it.

Both sides, I reckon someone has nudged the bumper and both sides have popped out.. arghhhh

As per above... any of you nice chaps have a look at your rear bumpers for me.. do they sit flush or do the "ends" sit just proud like mine..

Would appreciate if you could let me know, I just don't see them leaving the factory like that

Thanks a mil

Had a look at a photo of my rear bumper, should sit flush with rear quater panel. Think yours hasnt been put back properly, hope that helps

Cheers for that, that's the rear bumper mind, not the front that's why I was asking, it wasn't there before ... guess I'll just drop it in to my local bodyshop amd they sort the alignment..

You can get the lights out without removing the front bumper. I changed my cornering lights and indicators to LED by removing the headlights.

Is that not a mission in itself?.. maybe the bumper is by the book or the Techs favourite way.

Any chance having a look at your rear bumper for me noidea ?... I'd like some other owners to tell me how there's looks, can't get my head round the way mine does now.. one of those ones !... ..was it like that before.. if it was, I certainly never noticed..

I will take a picture later but my rear bumper does not line up perfectly. Maybe not quite as bad as yours though.

Here you go. This is the offside, the nearside is much the same.

Excellent, that's how mine used to look ! It's going in 22nd.. shouldn't be too difficult to fix I reckon.
