    In mine it was just a case of getting in behind the lights (li'l flap inside folds up) and ranking a thumbscrew counter-clockwise for what seemed to be forever

                Which ones you getting BLN?

                I think you asked me for photos during daylight, there are some in the what you did thread. Once I have time to clean up I'll update the photos.

                Nice writeup Alex!

                    Noice so you got the same as what I have then?

                    If you need a hand just chuck the pictures up here!

                    A few of us Polo boys meet the owner of Mars, two weeks ago said he ran out of the smoked ones so I'm unsure if yours would be delayed due to reordering of stock?

                    I got mine in a few days but he is in the same state as me.

                      Yeah your pics inspired the purchase haha

                      The ebay sale said express postage but still havn't heard anything from them. Hope they are in stock.

                          Lights off, little bit of reflection off camera flash.

                            @Fastlane, I just received my Mars tails. There's no red cover that needs to be removed for the reverse? Either they are producing them without it now of they pulled it out before shipping.

                                Got a quick question for you mate, whats doing with the reverse light? The instructions say to put in that little adapter thingy but do I need to buy a new globe for it?

                                PM me your mobile number and i'll send through the pics once I figure what to do with the reverse
