Hey all

Got told the other day that my right side inner tail light but the outer part of the tail light is out... pulled out the inner boot trim and found there was only the nuts that hold the complete unit in.. do i have to remove these little clips or am i missing something...

Hope this makes sense.. if not i can get a pic!!

thanks in advance..

Yup remove the boot trims and you should see 4 screws that hold the tail lights in

simply remove the nuts and pull from the outside,

then it's a case of turning the plug on the bulb you wanna replace.

Take care when putting the tail light back on though, when I installed my LED taillights I simply put the tail light housing back and tightened the nuts until they stopped turning, but the taillights didn't sight properly the way the used too. They were too far in making the bootlid stick out.

What I had to do was hold the taillight housing where I wanted it then tighten the nuts.

Could've just been my car but you'll see what I mean if it's the same as mine

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
