Hi,

 

Does anyone know how to take out the rear panel (the one which sits between the set of rear lights)?

 

I've given up on renewing my rear lights (which are a bit cracked) as I've read that it is a real pain in the backside as they're bonded in - I'm hoping that removal of the rear panel is gonna be a lot easier.

 

CHEERS!

Pop down mate and i will do it for you in about 5 mins LOL

It's not that bad. You've just gotta take your time. It's worth getting some heat on the area before easing them off.

 

As for the centre panel, from memory, there are 6 bolts from what I can recall. One at each end, then 2 each end, about 1/4 of the way in. There's also a crappy little pinch clip holding the centre in situ. That'll just need a bit of persuasion. That's it.

Have a look here.

 

Or do a search on the forum.
