    Does anyone know if it's a gasket or an o ring between the mating faces?

  7. That would be fantastic Keith
    Thank you muchly

    Should I be able to remove this cover without removing anything else?

  8. If you remove the locknut on the adjuster the cover should come off i think. It does on a bug box anyway. Theres probably a seal round it too.
     
  9. The screw is threaded into the cover, unscrew and the cover will rise up the thread then come off
    PM your address @paradox

    Nice. Didn't know these existed. Are they aftermarket?

    They look quite cool but what do they guard the lights from?
    Whatever it is would have to be extremely accurately aimed for those to give any protection!

  16. Yeah there aftermarket
     
  17. There more to protect from branches kicking up or reversing into hedges etc than stones kicking up.
     
  18. Cheers they do add to the overall rugged look of the way I'm building the van
     
  19. Cheers
    It's been nice to take something out of its packet and fit it straight on
    As a bonus they came with screws so my lenses are now fastened on properly .

    Not sure how well that'll work to be honest. They look to be fixed via the normal mounting screws which means hit them anywhere and the lense will crack anyway?
