    Hi folks, just got my Silvatec bulbs t'other day and I think I've sussed the side indicators OK, but had a quick look at the Xenons today and I'm not sure how to replace the Front indicators.

    Cleaning out 30 years of crap from garage at the mo (getting ready for new roof), so haven't really had time to properly investigate the fronts I know many of you have done this quick mod, so any tips would be handy - and might save me knackering an expensive headlight unit

Still got my old Hendrix Badge blu-tacked to the dash!
