#1 Indicator Fitment

Post by davef » Sat Apr 18, 2020 6:54 pm

Just removed indicators on my S3 to change the mounting rubbers as old ones a bit worn. When removed found that there was a large amount of what appears to be some form of rubber filler, which I had to carefully remove with a scrapper from the paint work. Not surprisingly the new ones do not fit properly with the expected gap. See images.

Does anyone know the reason for this, is it normal? I believe the previous owner had a new bonnet fitted, could it be that it is that at fault or the light clusters.

Here's hoping there is an easy solution.

I also not that one indicator has the lower half painted white, is there a reason for this and should both be the same.

Also how do you get the rubbers to remain in place when you refit the light clusters.

Thanks

Dave
