the bulb in my left foglamp is out, and i have never had to change one of these before and it doesnt look as simple as lifting the bonnet and popping it in our out, do i have to take off the front bar or the bulb surroundings somehow or jack the car up and do it from underneath,

how do you change these little buggers!

you need to get in behind the front bar (where the fog light assemblies are) and undo the cap on the back of it (much like the headlight)...if you can get it on a hoist it'll be pretty easy to get in behind it, but I did it on the ground....just a bit harder to get your head in and under to see what you're doing etc....jacking it up will help obviously

two 10mm bolts at the back of the assembly, unplug the foglight/indicator connector

and press down on the clip at the back to take the assembly off

much easier fitting a bulb afterwards

I will do this, sounds like a smart idea

Anyone know the bulb # so I can get one before taking the assembly out?

Thanks

    • Coming home late at night and driving past the police is the only reason i need one haha And yeh, definitley needs a switch to quickly enable it, dont have time to be getting my phone, opening an app, waiting for it to update etc before being able to make the change
    • Because it is financially convenient for them lol. Why wouldn't they want to give you the lowest possible valuation for your car?
    • Yep. @Duncan also shannons they will rip you dry and will be probably limited on how much you can drive. Also keep in mind that you always have to have it garaged with Shannons, with enthusiasts as per their PDS you can have it 2 times per week on the driveway for example. 
    • I had a generic 4" Varex rear box on my old V8, worked a treat for sneaking home late at night, it was as quite as stock when closed The car was "fairly" loud when open as it consisted of 1" 7/8 headers to 3" catted Y pipe, to 4" single, it did have a resonator in the mid pipe and only the Varex out the back I also hard wired in a Varex dash mount switch, as the key fob thing is a pain to use when driving I wouldn't recommend giving the beans when it is closed though as it creates a large restriction in the exhaust  It also can in very handy when pulled over for "random" breath tests or just cruising past the constabulary   
    • Here is the before and after of the scraping/sanding of the IC pads on the tachometer board for the fix mentioned in this thread. And yes it worked fine after. Just a note if you change any components on the board the tach calibration can be wrong showing the wrong idle etc...only problem is once it is installed back in the cluster you can't get to it to adjust...ouch! My fix was to cut out the calibration pot (the blue one) from the board and run it with two wires to the fuse panel under the dash where I could adjust the idle calibration once everything was installed. And yes I soldered everything up again including the half soldered components either side of the IC in my photos
