What have you done to your JK this week? 2.5M Views

Got the replacement indicators into the ARB bar. First pic here you can see why they needed replacement! Also you can see the indicator was put in place then the expanding plastic clips pushed through the lot so when I take out the indicator the clips will come out anyway.



This is the new backing plate in with the clips being pushed through the lot. Takes a bit of fiddling to get it started, I put it in on an angle so one side of the clip was in, then used a flat blade screwdriver to push the other side into the hole then squared it up and pushed it home.



Backing plate in



Indicator just pushes into the backing plate clipping into place with a gentle thump of the fist, job done.

Not overly glamorous but changed the squealing serpentine belt. Must have changed a million in the past but never on a JK CRD. 1 week later my hands are still bleeding and bruised. Oh how I loathe that engine bay.

It's beyond me why ARB can build such a great bar but never get the lamps to seal worth a damn, oh well, we'll keep plenty of the LEDs in stock.

So are these not sealed either? Looks like the back of the pcb you can see through that hole for the wiring?

100% Resin sealed back (just clear).
