the indicators in the front spoiler on my 00 classic have a single screw holding them on so can't help I'm afraid - I'm assuming its these that you're talking about?

just got the owners manual out the car - that shows 2 types of front indicator both of which screw in so yours must be totally different to mine. I know that replacing the side/parking light bulbs were a pain in the arse though as you have to open the bonnet and unscrew a mounting bracket at the top of the headlight assembly before pulling the whole sidelight unit forward until it pops out of its socket - the temptation is to take a screwdriver to it and lever it! Putting it back was even more of a fkucing nightmare trying to line up the pins/holes etc etc - all for a 50p bulb

have pm you my phone numbers - gimme a call am at home

on the FRONT BUMPER? on the Wing??

No screwing needed on the wing,

Screws should be at either end of the light unit?

As changed my whole unit last year, took me 30mins to change Both units.

Defo talking about Indicators, Not side lights?

Sounds like yours are the same as mine Baz although only one screw securing mine - perhaps the earlier imports have the indicators where my side/parking lights are in which case there aren't any visible external screws as suggested in my earlier post

Mines a 96 WRX import and each indicator (they are all in the bumpers as far as I know) has one screw holding it in place. I have changed mine to crystal lenses - took 5 minutes except for a bit of soldering as the bulb carriers were different on the crystal ones I bought.

You can see the screw from the front it is also one of the 4 fog light retaining screws IIRC. simply undo the top- left (drivers-side) or top-right (pass-side) of the folg light and then pull the lenses out towards the side of the car ahd they should come out.

Hope that helps - if not let me know and I can drop you some pictures.

Cheers,

Woody.

Your front discs should be 277mm if they are the standard 2 pot caliper if they have been upgraded already to 4 pots then they are probably 295mm.

Not sure on the backs (cant remember and its too dark to go measure em now :-) )
