How to install a spoiler on a Mini.

Model: Mini Mini Various
Part: Body

In this video, we see how to install a spoiler on a Mini: for maximum precision, it is advisable - after perfectly cleaning the surfaces - to fix ties with hollow pins inside, which will go in the appropriate holes for the screws on the spoiler. These will be used to establish the exact location where to drill the hole using the drill. Opening the trunk, we will find 5 rubber caps, which we will remove with a screwdriver. Under the caps, there are screws that we will have to unscrew. At this point, the spoiler will be free (except for the interlocking pins), so we can remove it with minimal force. Using the drill, we will make holes on the spoiler at the points that we had previously measured, of the exact size of the screws of the new spoiler, which we can already fix to the base. We reassemble everything in place using the 5 screws that we had removed, put back the 5 caps, and the job is done.

Removing and Replacing a Front Headlamp of a Lancia Lybra

This video explains how to remove and replace the front headlamp and its bulbs on a Lancia Lybra. The car has a very simple and quick headlamp removal system. To start, lift the bonnet, reach into the engine bay, and (specifically at the rear of the headlamp) unclip the metal tab that secures the headlamp, then use a screwdriver to undo the few Torx screws. After removing the screws, unclip the headlamp and pull it out from the bumper, disconnect the power connectors, and replace any damaged bulbs or the entire unit. The reassembly phase is very straightforward: insert the headlamp into the bumper housing as shown in the video, secure the metal tab until the headlamp clicks into place (screw in the securing screws). Finally, test the correct operation of the lights.
