Wagger Posted March 23, 2022 Report Share Posted March 23, 2022 I'll bet some of you have have already done this, but the translucent sections that act as diffusers on my Reverse and number plate illuminator were green and cracked beyond repair. The chrome is still good, so I cut a strip from a plastic milk container (Tesco) and wrapped it around inside. It works and almost looks original. It will degrade I know, but should last a wee while not being in direct sunlight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daverclasper Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 Thanks for info, I think they were originally fixed with steel/chromed headed rivets?. Did you fit with standard rivets?. PS, also heard of folk using plastic take away containers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wagger Posted March 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 No, I just wrapped it 2/3rds around and 'Captured' it when fitting. It cannot fall out when assembled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Truman Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 I brought new ones from a guy in the UK they came with very small plastic rivet type things, which I replaced with small brass nuts and bolts. I'll try and find the suppliers name. I think he was trying to get the kit as a club shop item? I'll see if I have a record of the supplier, just remembered I brought two kits so must find the spare it'll have contact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
