HTony,

What about the front indicator lights? The inner brackets are snapped on mine...

Hi Tim I assume you mean the main ones at the front not the side repeaters,
Can't see this being a hard job and they should be in good condition. £15 for the pair.
Thanks tony

As for the dash how does £75 sound?
As for the hydragas spheres, I had to google to find out what they are!! I'm guessing they could be a real pain to remove so not sure about price if you can point me in the right direction for removal I will come up with a price
Thanks
Tony


Tony you can ask any questions on here as to which bit goes where etc, and i am sure you will not be stitched up :slapme:

You need to depressurise the Hydragas system first (its about 400psi) and its best done with a machine. you could get Russell Walsh MG Rover Solutions to do this for you (about £30) and he is not too far away. his details are in the glovebox above. Good spheres are about £20 each on ebay Clearly mark the rears as they are different from the front.

PS: rear spheres are a bitch of a job! Jon Norris recently did mine. So you may want to strip off all the surrounding stuff first... Especially as you don't need to put it back together again! :broon:

:rant: :rant: Dont break the side clips getting them out!!! which is a common problem ( you cant buy the lenses seperately and the lamps are about £30 each new) if you break the clips they wont stay in place :rant:

What are the headlamps like?? Could you take a photo and post it here or email me on [email protected] i need a pair that i can get refurbished (the dipped beam section goes milky and is a MoT failure)

I was just about to ask about the headlights :(


There is no rush on the spheres, so don't worry, they are going in my spares box ;)

You need to say whether the indicator lights are clear or amber. :yesnod:

Ok I think the hydrosphere things might be a bit latter on in the strip down as sounds like a big job which I probably won't have the tools for so sorry about that.
Headlights shouldn't be a problem I will try getting them off at the same time as the indicators, however due to high demand they are now very expensive!!!!! (thanks softly!!)
Only joking I will get them off and take some pictures with regards to price does £25 for the pair sound right?

Quick question, if I am going to be removing the lights/indicator am I best to remove the bumper at the same time?
