Front Turn Signal Housing Removal

Post by chitwnvw » Wed Jun 27, 2007 8:40 pm

How does one remove the turn signal housing on a 1973 Bus? ( I want to replace the rubber seals ) I took off the lens. No go. Tried to go in through the back, hard to see. Took out the glove compartment, now a clear view, but still not obvious how to remove!

Help.

PS: Removing the glove compartment is easy and exposes behind the dash wonderfully. I'm going to leave it out and clean up my wiring. :cheers:

They are rivetted to the front panel. Drill them out. Then be sad because you now have to re-rivet or find discrete nuts/bolts that won't get in the way.
