Muddy Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I'm a bit gutted today, broke my passenger rear light trying to get it off. The bugger was really tight and I had to give it a big pull. The light gave way and cracked at first I just thoguht it was the popper bracket that had just snapped but it wasn't Looks like I'll be on the look out for a secondhand one if anyboday has one lying around. Or alternatively I could opt for some LED jobbies -- Alex Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MITZ@CougarStore Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Sorry to hear that mate, but it might be a good time to get a set of the rear LEDs from Alex... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixy Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 what a pain - nothing worse than when you break something yourself! Go outside and scream is my suggestion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Ohh thats such a shame Craig, it looks like you "have" to get a set from Alex (/end sarcasm) Wish that would work around here. Amanda would tell me to go out and glue it back together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I have 1 set left mate, but I would hate for you to splash out if you really did not want a set of these wonderful led's. Therefore I can let you have a pre led tail lamp for nowt if you wish, but I really think that you should treat yourself and upgrade.

martinmac Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Know how you feel Craig, I am very unlucky with my car and regularily break things, normally on the A1 around sunderland. Fortunately I know someone around there to sort it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 LEDs Craig. You know it makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWZ Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 LED all the way Great for lighting up your followers....esp. as it's sooo dark out there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xendric Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 You lucky sod! I love it when something breaks and its the perfect excuse for an upgrade you couldnt quite justify before... Great idea, Im gonna have to figure out a way to break my exhaust! LEDs look awesome, but if you don't wanna give up 250ish, you can get a regular one for far less. I upgraded recently, so I have a set lying. PM if you need? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Right, now how do I go about breaking my rear lights and my brake discs.....?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chesterfield Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Yes its a bit of a bugger, so far Ive broke my lights, skirts, fluid tanks, bonnet stay, discs, pads, exhaust, air intake, and Ive had to cover a couple of scars on the front with a lip and the same on the back. Terribly unreliable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Thanks for the offer Martin. If you could do the rear bumper even more than it already is, I guess I'd have no choice but to change that as well..... Like Chris, I couldn't believe it when my side skirts got dirty. They had to come straight off.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
