To you guys on here this will be so insignificant but to me....... - Car Repairs are the devil !!

I know nothing about anything ever and ever amen to do with screwdrivers and spanners etc so I am so pleased I managed to replace the boot brake light myself !
Thanks to :-
Number 5 / Bazoz4 / Hopz121 - (for the sound advice)
Terryvision - (for the superb You Tube video Link)
PVR - (for the inspiration - didn't quite manage it in your record time It took me 25mins but to me that was brilliant !)

Thanks Guys - Just one point is it supposed to be on all the time ?

You will be changing your own brake pads very soon

any gym member worth his salt would be underneath the car, bench pressing it over the speed humps!

Any gym member worth his salt would have cycled to the gym

Nice Job Badger.

Just make sure you haven't done it up too tight otherwise it will crack again

No just finger tight and then 1/4 turn !!

Mrs Badger reckons if I wasn't such a fat git in the first place the car would probably clear the speed hump !!!!

 

[pvr]

Ah, a quarter turn is not enough, that will make it crack by rattling.

It need the half turn bit.









:evil:

 

[Vbstein]

I wish I could do that

Firstly congratulations Badger on completing said task.

I'm the same...not blessed with the DIY skills or having much common sense when it comes to things like this!

with regards to the replacement light, is there somewhere that we are sourcing these from for £14.99 instead of the usual daylight robbery prices?
