[Healeys] BJ8 turn signal indicator lights

[Earl Kagna]

Tom:

The chrome ring is actually part of the main green plastic threaded assembly.  To remove, unscrew – gently! – the aluminum bulb housing on the back of the dash panel while holding the little chrome ring with the other hand to keep it from moving.  These parts are pretty delicate to start with – after 40 plus years, even more so.  If you are lucky, they’ll com apart with no fuss.  You’ll see what I mean as soon as you get things moving.  Hopefully, nobody has glued anything in place in the past.

I think I have one out of the car somewhere that I can photograph for you if it will help.  If you will be more comfortable with that before you start, let me know.

Good luck!

I'm trying to remove the turn signal indicator lamps from the wood dash.   From what I've been able to figure out, it seems like the small chrome piece on the front side screws off, but it's stuck and I don't want to break anything.   


Any help will be greatly appreciated!
