Default parker lights

got a set of blue LED parkers today.. and wow is it just me or are parkers in VT's a BITCH to get out.. neither me or my mates fingers were small enough to take the left one out (we didnt have any pliers on us) and from the looks of it gonna have to un bolt the battery to get to the right one.

but jeez, there isnt ANY room to get it out.. nice work holden make a simple job hard. if i wanted something that was difficult to work on i would of bought something european.

haha i know what you mean, i put a set of blue parkers in not long ago, when i first saw it i didnt think there was parkers lol, then i read the book and its shoved in under the headlight bulb, and you have to take the battery out for the drivers side one. That sucked when i didnt have the pin number for my stereo

No need to disconnect the battery, just move it a little.

I've taken mine out a few times, its fiddely but we got it done easily enough. Take the headlight out first gives you a bit more room.

yeah, well put them both in and then forgot to check they worked, put the battery etc back, realised i put the wedge the wrong way around, then put the **** back one again forgetting to check, the drivers side one wasnt pushed in the whole way, so had to do it again, put it all back together, then realised that i left the plastic cap off and had to move the battery again haha..

but pleased with finished product, my headlights drown them out when its not just on parkers which is good, can only see em if you look close really.. meaning less cop trouble.

but yeah once youve had to re-do them about 5 times you get the hang of it and it gets easier, i found it easy to stick a finger through the headlight globe hole and push the parker out from the inside.

sorry about quality of photos but the first one is just parkers and second is headlights.
