Default Bugeye - Changing rear lights

Hi

I am looking at purchasing a bugeye (as my classic has been written off) but I have seen a few with the newer rear lights

Is it a simple straight forward swap or what work is involved ??

Hi matt I changed mine to blobeye rear lights and it was a straight swap,they fit the same as the bugeye ones but you will need to remove a little bit of rubber on the circle bit at bottom of lights so they fit flush

and yes straight fit once you remove the small foam packing piece at the bottom of the round lamp also make sure you get all the lamps with the lights bulbs everything because i think the fittings ie the plugs may not reach as they are set up differentley
