Hi guys
Still gradually getting my C4s Cab up to scratch.
Only had her for just over 3 weeks and I need your help again.
The high level 3rd brake light in the spoiler is a mess!!
It only had 2 lights working and after taking it apart I realised why!!!.
Its obviously been taken apart many times as the clips have all broken.
The copper wire inside is green and again the plastic surrounding the pins are in a right mess.
So after new bulbs and many attempts to rectify I’ve decided to get a new one!!
Has anyone had the same problem and where is the best place to buy a replacement??
Simon


 
Hi Simon, yes i had this problem many years ago ( advisory after an 111 point check at OPC) replacement cost circa £125 but upon dismantling the re assembling all worked fine although as you say clips had broken but i managed to secure & it has been fine ever since!!!!

See link below for replacement part:

Hope this helps.....


 
Thank you Kasspa
I think mine is beyond saving so I think I will go for a new one.
But I will try and fix it again before paying out for a replacement
