Title: Xenon lights
Post by: CJMC on October 05, 2018, 07:43:02 pm: Hi all!

Hoping you can help. Bought some xenon lights however the internal light has come out of its bracket... I have attached the pic... Does anyone know how I get the bracket back in? Unless you have hands the size of a gerbil I am stuck!

Thanks in advance. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181005/154d1db74a61520840b9769a6330283a.jpg)
