November 25, 200619 yr Removed the old headlight panel no problems. The problem is removal of the rubber seal around the old panel. I unscrew all the screws but its still stuck on it. Didn't want to force it off for fear of breaking it as my new one isn't sprayed yet. Just wanted to drill the holes in the new one. So any ideas how to remove the rubber seal? Cheers Al
November 25, 200619 yr you can use the metal plate to locate holes for drilling, the rubber should just pull off, mine did or you can run a blade along it as someone might of put a sealent on it at some point
November 25, 200619 yr Author Cheers for that. The problem was that since the new panel hasnt been sprayed I'd have to take the old one off. Take the seals off. Drill the holes in the new one. And then put all the seals back on the old one and re fit it. Would it be disastrous if I were to spray up the new one before drilling? As the drill holes are not in paint visible reas.

FFS It aint rocket science, :cry: Do you actually stir your own tea ;) Should take you 10 minutes allowing for a brain cell recharge.
