Hello all
Picked up 16 plate tekna a few days ago. Nice motor. Noticed that the vanity lights on the sun visors ain't working (both sides). Hoping it's just the bulbs, are they easily replaced.
Cheers

I'm not sure about the sun visor lights - the manual doesn't even mention them either in the Vanity Mirror section or in the DIY section.

Nice one. I'll have a closer look at them. Not the end of the world and with a face like mine I try to avoid looking in mirrors.😉

if it`s both sides then it could very well be the fuse has gone, would be strange for both bulbs to go. but it`s the same bulbs that are used in the glovebox, i got mine from here nice a bright if you want to upgrade :D
