Branners Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 The indicator bulb in the side indicator unit on my bumper has come loose. It's a facelift so its actually in the side of the bumper and not the wing. I have tried everything to get the indicator bulb and housing to mount in but I seem unable to do it. Anybody got any diagrams of how it fits or how it twists to make it lock in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natony Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Its just the usual quarter turn fitment, i fitted some clear ones on mine today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjy Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 They can be a bit fiddly but as above, just a push and twist mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 yep, tried the push and twist, kept turning the bulb holder until it felt like it slotted in but wouldnt twist up or down!! I will try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjy Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I would pop the lamp off if you're really struggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 Just remembered, this is an after market Stillen front bumper. I will try and take off the plastic cover for the indicator and see if I can work it out from there. The nearside one is locked in fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjy Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Is it the side repeater or the indicator and side light assembly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I've got a pair of stock orange ones here if it turns out one of yours is damaged John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjy Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I'll have my clear ones coming off soon too. I've ordered some shiny new ones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I had the same issue with both of mine, I just assumed it was down to the bulb holders being a different fitment as the light units are facelift. All the groves line up but it won't twist, I ended up sticking a blob of silicone on the bulb holder to keep it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
