Headlights...REP AVAILABLE!
There is a little box on the back of the headlights. I have taken the headlights off but now need to take this box off so i can ut it on the new headlights and put the new headlights on my car.....
anybody know how to remove this box? |
it was a bastard.
the box is the head light adjuster motor. you have to twist and pull to un-catch it then you have to pull. to be honest i didnt want to pull it as i was worried about damaging it (citroen want £40 + VAT for each of them) so i took the lens off and caressed it out from both sides |
howd oyou take the lense off? i took the metal clips off but they didnt seem to make a difference??
|
oh my god. this is the hardest thing i've ever done on the car. I pulled so hard and it didn't come off!!! for some reason it didn't break either. I just pulled harder and harder until it came flying out and I fell over :)

you have to heat the silicone sealent up with a hairdryer and get a flat headed screwdriver into the gap and prise them apart. |

it's sealed it wont be coming off in a hurry hold up... |
Yeh you should be able to do it without removing the lens but if u are afraid of breaking it at least the lens gives you another ooption
|
|
how do you put the lense back on? heat the sealant and then stick?
|
yeh you can re-heat the sealent or you can buy new silicone and put it on. I did my foglights today and just reheated it.
|
got them working now :thumbup:
|
one of my lamps has came of the adjuster servo, ie when i move the lights up and down, one doesnt move but the motor is still moving.
if i took this box off would i be able to put the lamp back on the servo? as i dont really want to open the whole unit up |
