Help With A 'How To' Guide

Kev.O · 4th April 2009, 03:46 PM

I'm in the middle of writing up a how to guide on removing the headlights, however I don't have the stock airfilter/box in place and was wondering if anyone whould be kind enough to take a few pictures whilst they remove their airbox.
Thanks.

I can do this Kev if you don't mind waiting until next weekend (just about to set off for a week away (by 'plane))

If you do then let me know what angles and pics you want and how far you want everything stripped down and i'll oblige

.

Lucky ours are both Silver too - the pics'd match!

No rush Mike, just need them done yesterday

. Next weekend is fine.
Just need some pictures so I can write up how you go about removing the airbox to allow access to the nuts that hold the light in and the bulb clips. I've done the rest. Only need a picture showing where the bolts are, and what tools you need.
Thanks Mike. Have a great time

Having just had my headlights replaced I managed to do it by just removing the filter cover and filter - you need a fairly deep socket set though and not mind scraped knuckles.

I'll get some pictures of the whole 'box out for you though, as it is the far easier way of doing it ( I was just feeling stubborn that day, thought 'Bugger it' and cracked on!

Thanks Mike. I know it's something that's pretty easy, I just want to cover all areas, as it'll be linked to another 'how to' guide

I've got a series of pictures which detail it here:

However I forgot to take the pictures with the actually hands in there removing the nuts and bolts.

Nothing a few circles (courtesy of MS Paint) won't fix.

Kev - If these are sufficient then let me know. If there's any others needed then I can get them, as I've just recieved some Megs APC and this'll be an ideal chance to start cleaning the engine bay to try and make my photos match Flynn's.
