Are the tail lights only the ones just above the diffuser or should the brake lights above the indicators also come on with the lights?

Also can you tell me the best way trying to get the roof panel in the boot?. I spent about 10 minutes yesterday trying to get it in there and only ended up with a very big airbrake!! :-(

Cheers
Lindon.

Did you get a Handbook with your car?
It's all in there.
No point me typing it in again.

Imust admit, Lndon, I had the same outcome the first time I tried putting the lid away. The secret is to lean your head against the boot lid, to get it a bit more open, and then wriggle the panel down. I is actually quite easy the second ime. Honest!!

I did read the manual honest :-0 I'll give the roof another try with the nubbin approved method. As for the lights it isn't clear in the manual and every night this week on the drive home I've had people at traffic lights pulling up next to me shouting "Oi mate your lights aren't working but your fog lights are"!!!

Thanks
Lindon

Lindon, sorry for being unhelpful, busy day!

Nubbin's right, your have to push the boot lid as far upright as it'll go. It still needs a bit of wiggling but isn't too difficult!

As for the lights, nobody's mentioned anything to me. Yet?

Cheers....... ANdrew

Lindon,
The rear lights are Indicator and Stoplamp in the upper body work, and in the lower blacked out area are the Tail lamps,Fog and Reverse.

Hope this helps.

...and if anyone says that again tell them "That's where Lee put them!"
