How the heck?

Hi All,

Bit of help needed. If just fitted LED bulbs to the full interior and boot and now want to do the reverse lights but I'm not sure how to get access to the reverse light bulbs. Do you prise the lens off or the black surround and if so what's the best way to do it?

Are there any other bulbs I can change to LEDs and are they worth changing? I don't want to touch the front headlights for legal reasons.

The panel beneath the central rear lights is held with lugs, you have to jiggle/lever it gently (use the end nearest the front of the car cos if anything goes wrong it will be harder to view).

The light housing is then accessible, undo the 2 quarter turn clips( towards front of car), the push the light housing towards the front of the car, held in by 2 lugs (above the lights at either end).

You can disconnect from the loom to the car or just replace the bulbs without disconnecting.

I would rather remove it from the car as it would be easier to work on.

Great. Will give it a try as soon as I get a spare 20 mins. I thought it might be the black housing but didn't want to risk pulling it too hard as pulling to hard on anything is never a good idea. :dance:

the drl's on the mk1 are ripe for changing to 60 leds's (available from rcz performance shop) and they make the front a whole lot better. what model and lights do you currently have? also the 92 red led's on the rear are awesome and highly recommended..

Mk2 GT however it's being handed back to Peugeot as soon as they find me a replacement as the one I have has been a nightmare. I'm going to have to take out all the LEDs I fitted. :(

I got 25w cree canbus safe red LEDs for the brake lights and 50 or 80w (can't remember) cree canbus safe drl (mk1) on ebay for a very reasonable price, they have been in the car for 5 months with no issues
