Xantia Tail Lights

Hey guys,

I'm looking to change the tail lights on my S1 Xantia to S2 Clear ones. They haven't done the usual thing like most sinkers do where the tail lights go cloudy, but I think the rear end of an S2 looks much tidyer and more appealing.

I thought I'd ask as Citroen being Citroen probably used a hammer and nail to hold the S2 Tail lights on, just so S1 owners didn't swap them!

Stu.

Stu, I'm happy to report that the S1 and S2 rearlights are a straight swap.

Amazing I know but there you go...

Its not just the Early Sinkers that suffer from the "Crazing"... it was a continued problem - ALONG with the Bootlid crazing problem - untill around 1996-7... no idea why, but after and including P Reg cars it stopped.

Yup, Id expect a 1995 boot lid to do this!!

As for Laqur peeling, No, Ive not had this problem on Xantias.. Only XMs...

Crikey moses, I nearly fell off my chair!

Thanks for that!

Mine haven't done it yet, so if someone wants my non-cloudy tail lights, PM me for details.
