How to replace fog light on L400 bull bar

Post by wstcstlad »

Ok...so after reading through these forums for an hour, I have yet to find something that mentions HOW to actually replace fog lights on an L400. It's so freaking tight to try and access the screws around the mounting that surely there must be an easier way. Can anyone point me to how to access these mounts? I've tried finding a way to remove the plastic cowling and also getting in there with a box end wrench and allen key and all seem hopelessly time and energy consuming.

Also, does anyone have suggestions as to where locally (Victoria or Vancouver) I can find current CIBIE lights, or am I looking at replacing them with another brand - open to suggestions as this is on someone elses dime (who backed into my parked van)

I can't help you with accessing the bolts but once you have it off just take it to the shop and pick up a light that you like of comparable size, that mounts in the same way and has the same wattage.

It freaked me out a little when I started the project but it was easy. You have to take the whole set up off to access the screws on the other side of the plastic shroud. Best advice is to get the whole set up off and on make sure you have a side-kick to help. Leads to less scratches and swearing. :-)
