Title: Xenon headlight surrounds loose-how to fix
Post by: diazbtn on November 13, 2013, 09:07:44 am

Hello fellas,

I have recently purchased a 2008 Pirelli 3door in black  :smiley: and purchased some Xenon's off ebay, in transit the courier decided to play football with them and the surrounds on the Xenon bub have come loose on both of them, what's the best way to fix this? is it to take the Xenon motor etc. out or the lens.....had a look on the website at the manuals and it doesn't look easy to me, has anyone ever had to fix this???

love the site, really helpful, will post some pics up soon after I get it detailed, oh and thinking of a remap, APR with cruise stalk fitted or Bluefin?? Bluefin much cheaper......suggestions??

Will have to split headlights dont think you can get your hand in  or anything else to put surrounds back on.
Is not that hard to DIY just fallow steps :)
