Probably a dubm question, but having some of trousers finest carbon fibre replacements, how do I get the original orange plastic ones off? They seem to move up, but I'm a bit anxious about bending something

Andrew ..

If u pull them out a little (some force needed) u will see a metal clip behind .. Press the clip and they just pop out in yr hands ..

Nice Scoob u have .. Saw it blast round Bentwaters with the Scoobycity Crew...

Sorry, that's not the way to do it - pulling it outwards will break the clips off. Hook your fingernails under the bottom of the reflector, and lift it directly upwards *then* outwards, not outwards first. There is a tag at the bottom that will come free when it overcomes the spring clip pressure.

Yep, spring clip and tag system exactly like the side repeaters

But sorry, can't help on the fingernails issue

Sorted, thanks to embarrising intevention of a female with smaller fingers/nails to actually get under the damn things

Replacements on now, look 'straight' or at least lined up I hope. I'm assuming they just stick straight on, cos otherwise I'm gonna have them falling off
