Hi all - I hope this is a simple if not daft question. But I've brought some eyelids (from eBay) for our 79 Bay and we just can't make them fit. Are we doing something really daft? Or should I have brought them from somewhere else? Or do 79s not have them New to all this....please help out lady in distress
They are fiddley to fit. Remove the chrome headlight cover by undoing the single long screw and try to fit the eyelids inside the chrome surround by bending the eyelid lips and offer the eyelid in place on the surround back onto the light frame (there could be a little lug on the frame that slots inside the surround) and then try to re fit the lond screw without the eyelid falling out! good luck but its worth the trouble. Then its 'pims o'clock' or pint time!
Cool, thank you. We will give it another go. Will add picks if we manage it Defo will be wine o'clock
Smearing marmite on the headlamps is much easier. If you havent bought stainless ones i wouldn't bother tbh. Chrome ones are invariably of poor quality and rust as you watch.
Nice looking crossover (crossdresser!) van, now you have the eyelids but where has the nose and the bolt holes gone! (vw emblem in the middle). Question; did the fitting of the eyelids take that long you needed a sleeping bag for a overnight sleep?
She came with the nose missing - we want to get it back on. Hate the vw badge in the middle...needs to be chrome. And they filled the holes No the fitting didn't take that long....just didn't fancy the stones digging in my knees. But then if all else fails, nothing better than a snooze
