Was there green stuff...hard to explain round the very edges of the light clusters where it is glued to the black backing, if so how did you remove it?? Mine is green round the edges not very nice.

I am going to hit 62000 tomorrow going to work in handforth. Done more miles these last 3 months than I did the whole year before. Starting to show now 1 the car is filthy and 2 everything is breaking!!!

Yes mate lots of green moss, tried all sorts to remove it with no luck before finally finding a cure. Have to remove the light units, then spray them at very close range with a pressure washer (mind your fingers!) in the edges where the lamp unit is glued to the black backing. All the moss just fell out.

You'll be dead close to me if you're working in Handforth, I only live on the A34 (you should know that road!).

would that not damage the seal and let in water? i have little bits on dirt but nothing too bad.

My rear lights already condensated up anyway. And it's no worse now than it was before. So to be honest I doubt it's done any damage to the seals.

I did the same with my old lights, Any damage to the seals would be done by the moss anyway I would imagine.

Cheers I will have to go round to my grandads and ask to use the pressure washer can get the wheel arches done at the same time. (whilst being supervised and told off for using it wrong of course) It doesnt look nice although the brown car distracts you from it a but.

Yeah I will be working just off the A34 tomorrow at the BHS home there (counting stock) its about an hours drive for me but ive been round there a lot lately so getting to know it a bit better

Haha, well look out for me mate. Also take care at the + junction at Gatley lights (where Gatley road meets the A34), was a mahoosive smash there the other night, 3rd time in 2 years people have ended up in hospital from accidents there!

Hmm sounds like an idea, think i will try the water first though as id be worried about the chemicals in herbicide
