Bonneville America Forums Forums Technical Forums Accessories console lens replacement

Hey guys, How do I go about changing my neutral, high beam and blinkers lens which have mysteriously fallen out. I have the replacements here. I have taken off my console but can't seem to figure out how to put the new ones in. Do I push them out from the back or somehow pry them out from the face..? I just don't want to do any damage.

thanks in advance.

The lens may be gone, but the lens holder is probably still in place. You should be anle to pop out he old one and push in the new one all from the top side of the console. the only thing holdng it in is a rubber o-ring.

Ain't no mystery - they do fall out. No doubt the adhesive used has a short life. As Soren and Ray indicated, the lens can be replaced by prying the lens out by placing your finger nail under the chrome ring that houses the lens itself. No need to remove or loosen the consol. The lens replacements are ready available at most dealers.

My suggestion - BEFORE YOU LOSE ANOTHER, as they are expensive for what they are.

Remove ALL lens holders and pop the lens off ( You'll probably find them 'ready' to fall off anyway. Using cleas silicon sealant (Automotive or bathroom), place a very small amount where the lens fits the housing and press the lens back on. Wipe away any excess, and allow the sealant to 'set'. You'll be glad you did.

Thanks, guys. I had it done in a matter of 60 seconds.

Thanks for the tip, I'll be doing that this weekend before they fall out.
