Thread: Removal of D2a Headlight

you broken it already!

undo the 2 top multi hex bolts and it pulls out, then undo the light fitting.
i use a small bag of sillica on a string inserted into the lense, that way i can get it out easy.

cheers phil

very clever,, but wouldnt that give you a black spot?
These are amazing lights,,,

You've got to take the grill off and undo the screw/bolt on the side as well as the two on top. Can't recall if the bolt is behind the horn and/or under a plastic flap. There is a single multi-pin plug on the back of the housing to disconnect the wiring harness. The two headlights and the park and indicator are all behind twist off covers and there is an internal wiring harness.

You have a leak somewhere in the headlight. Once you have the lights out of the body, check that the seal around the bulb mounts are clean and that they close correctly.

"These are amazing lights,,,"

So you reckon the D2a lights are better than the D2 lights ?

I certainly have no complaints!

Kev..

yep Kev, superior all round.
much wider spread on low beam,
much better distance on high,,

cant see why you'd ever need spots

Yes they are. I was surprised at just how much better they are when my son upgrade the ones in his D2.
