300te
Hello all
new to this forum and just bought a 300te having had my old 200te stolen H875 JNK white if anyone sees it.
Anyway a few teething probs with the 300te, seems to be settling down now.
Ive been trying tidy up some rust patches. There are a few little spots appearing on the tailgate above the number plate around the plastic strip that covers the number plate lights. I tried to unscrew the plastic piece and took out for self tapping screws and the two number plate lights thinking it would pull away then I could get to the rust spots. It will not pull away though and seems to be being held in by something at the ends. There are two little holes ( about 2mm ) on the strip that look like they need something prodding in to release the piece but I cannot get it to release. I took off the interior trim but cannot see a way to it from there either. So just looking to see if anybody has some this before and know how I can get the piece off
Many thanks for any help on this
Yours for now
Joe
 
Welcome to the forum Joe.

Sorry cant help with your prob. Never had mine off.

Will keep a look out for H875 JNK up here in the North West.
 
Thanks John
Ive got a feeling its a lot further away than North of England :)
Id had it 17 years but like myself was getting a bit long in the tooth
I thought it would be easy to replace but oh no !
