Whilst on my way into Glasgow to pick up the wee one drew up behind a 10 registered FFRR at a main junction , looked at the rear end thinking something was amiss , then it dawned on me a 2010 registered FFRR and it did not have the 2010 rear lights , just the red and amber run of the mill lights .

At the next main junction i managed to get in front of him and it had the new 2010 front grill and Lights ........

Strange or what ...

Rear Lights are very easy to steal, and i've heard of it happpening, especially now there's increased demand for 2010 rear lights. Maybe they are temporary replacements. I do wonder how the electrics would behave though, as there's some electrical wizardry that needs to be done to make 2010 LED lights work with earlier models. Apologies if i've posted this on my phone and it contains strange spelling and punctuation.. i just can't be bothered to correct it

Start taking ur camera with ya Mick!!

Also.. Red and Amber are pre 2006 aren't they?. My 06 model has red and clear.

Thats what threw me when i seen it ...........

like AVI says these rear lights are 'simplez' to steal...i've changed my normal nut type to torque type which will make it harder for mine to be taken without consent... ... - .- -.

Just how easy are they to steal? There's a 6mm bolt holding them in which can't be accessed unless the hatch is open? I take it, they just break off or something?

Mick- it wasn't a 02-05 model with half a facelift was it? 2010 MY Vogue SE TDV8 3.6 Stornoway Grey- fully loaded

noddy, you can undo the nut with a thin spanner, have a look and you will see.... ... - .- -.
