Headlight connections wont fit. - 01/26/12 07:47 AM
Hi there,
I purchased new light conduits for the headlights and they are to big to go through the hole in the headlight. These lights were NOS bought many years ago at swap-meet. The original lights have the larger hole and the conduits will go through.
I have removed one of the NOS lights and want to strip and use the parts in the old headlights.
The Problem :
see the pictures, I cant get the reflector off the NOS lights. The reflector seems to be spring loaded and wont release?
I can see the round spring behind the bulb holder and that I believe holds the holder to the reflector?
so how can I remove the reflector? any ideas?
What goes in, must come out, but how?
Peter
