Any one know how the bulb is removed from Lightforce HID 240 driving light. The type I have the ballast connects directly onto the bulb. I just cant see how to remove the bulb correctly. Urgent help needed. want to complete tonight.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks Mark

As I see it.......screw the lens right off..........take hold of the old globe and slide it straight out of the holder....the two wire pins on the globe just slide in and out of the receiving holes ...no ? Reckon I took one out last week because the globe was not working...turned out to be water in the relay (always have the relay terminals facing down I learned).

I am not sure of your theory. To access the bulb on mine the rear cover has to be removed not the lens/. I think we are not talking about the same unit . Thanks anyway. Mark

Blokes,
you 2 are talking about 2 different lights. Perf, yours is the HID...that bright sucker that cost about $1,200 each; right?
Perf, the one your referring to ; ie: "screw the lens right off"....is the 240 Blitz (same as mine). With the HID jobbies there is no screwing of the lens allowed; so to speak! LOL
Sorry I can't help you Banjo. Your the first bloke I've come across who has those grouss peepers......I bet they're bloody great, eh?
Cheers,

I am right for interior lights and thanks for your sincere thoughts.
I got round it and new bulbs are on their way. Next is a tarp escecially now that we have had a reminder of what the weather can be like.

Going to the wife's dress shop tomorrow,(carlton canvas) to pick up
new tarp and check pole types. reckon the 12 x 10 will be okay and they
have reinforced "D" rings aswell as pole holes. Will bring it over next monday
Glad you got the lights sorted I'll now have about 3 km warning when you are
catching up.
