Fitting new lights. help asap
« on: April 06, 2009, 04:18:37 pm »
Alright all,

My edition 30 lights have come today. I am doing the centres first as this looked the hardest. I have undone the two screws given it a good pull and the right side come off. But the left no matter how much I pull won’t come off (im scared im going to break the back panel) any ideas? I have also tried to get to the nuts with the back panel still on but with no luck :(
