Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, does anyone know if the front headlamps can be cleaned from the inside? or can the lens be replaced? mine seems to be discoloured. Its on a 996, 2000 model.

POST 2Original post

Extract them as per handbook (see bulb change) Then open back (unclip or unscrew bulb access - depends on bulb) - then bang out debris (spiders!) or hoover with thin flexi adapter or flush lens with IPA (isopropal alcohol) and dry with hair dryer (fast IPA evaporation seems to reduce/prevent "water" marks) You can't actually detach lens though, unless you want to bake the lamps and prize sealant off.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
