I'm in the process of replacing the intercooler pipes and am stuck at the small bend under the headlight. How the hell does it come out? It has two screws to lock it in place, undid those and its free but it doesn't seem to want to pull through or push in so it's just stuck there!!!!!!!!!!!!!Any hints or ideas? does it go in or out? Was going to cut it but thought better not.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoke to Alex @plazmaman and he siad I'd have to cut the hole to fit the new pipes anyway, since I'm not able to do that at home the whole kit will get fitted by someone else (not me!)

That pipe is fitted before headlights.Plus that's how I got the same bloody annoying little f*** of a pipe out when I was doing my piping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had just read somewhere that once loose you can get the pipe out/in. For some that might be a bit 'accident prone' maybe safer to leave the h/light in. Whatever works.

bunna Donating Members 813 Member For: 18y 4m 30d Posted 27/02/11 01:25 AM Share Posted 27/02/11 01:25 AM Very true!I just figured that anyone that had managed to get that far (ie. bumper off) would be competent enough to go a little further. I always use the mentality that there is a way to disassemble everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PWR have and 'step by step' guide (with photos) you can download. It's for their replacement pipe kit. Very well done and even tells you the tools you'll need. I've printed one off ready for my conversion. It confirms that you don't need to fully remove the headlights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
