Title: Popping bulbs?
Post by: BigSi on September 30, 2007, 22:21:34

Has anybody else had any trouble with bulbs popping out of the holders? Bought a load of Wipac replacement light fittings, but by the time I reach the end of the lane, I’ve lost side lights and one brake light!

When I remove the lens to check, the bulbs have come out and are rattling in the lens?  :x  :x  :x  :x

Decided that the only way to quickly cure my ‘Popping Bulbs’, was to get some genuine ones from the local dealership. As soon as I mentioned the bulbs were popping out to the parts guy, he smiled and nodded. Apparently I wasn’t the only one who had this problem!  :cry:  :cry:  :cry:  :cry:
