AAAARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Just spent 2 hours trying to get the clip onto the headlight bulb. Can anyone in my area help?? Got to the point now where I have lost all patience with it and gonna break something.
A fine waste of an afternoon with what I thought was gonna be a 10 min job replacing a bulb

Oh that is so frustrating! Hope someone comes to your aid mate. Failing that, risk a ride up to Classic Zeds workshop. He is up in the industrial area just before the plaza, sorry dont remember what the business is called though. No doubt someone will be along in a mo to help.

Yeah, they can be a bit of a bastard if you're trying not to remove anything. But in the end it's often better to unbolt some bits to give better access.

V funny mate. Finally got it on today. All sorted or so I thought, now one of my indicators is out!!! F'in electrics. Looks like another hour in the garage checking the wiring. Was meant to be away in the motorhome too, luckily not going till later. Making things even worse the temp gauge in the garage is reading 34c, and no shade on the driveway yet!!!

Just so to make sure you've got it in securely right and tight and now know how to clip it back on why don't you try and unclip it and redo it again :D

Let us know how you went.
