Ok so the puddle light went out on my driver door mirror so I took off the mirror and extracted this unit that houses the camera and bulb that I want to replace (i'm beginning to have my doubts...) anyhow I removed the 4 small screws but there is something that is stopping it from coming apart, like something inside still connected. I can remove the lens on the bulb but it does seem to do anything. Any thoughts ? Guy
im guessing that is not intended to be a serviceable part. there is most likely a bead of sealant in the seam. pry slowly and work your way around. im sure it will come apart. they had to put it together...right? i see a FoMoCo stamp on the part. is there a part number? just in case, you should look it up and make sure its somthign your willing to pay before possibly damaging the camera during disassembly. it would be a shame to loose camera function when the current problem is only an LED.
Ok so I stopped by my local dealer (first mistake) and he said its 1 unit and quoted me $714 Anyhow found the part online from other sellers for $450, seems like a lot for a puddle light , I think I will pass for right now.
care to share your part number? MY10-MY13 puddle lamp CTZ500010 $16.96 list MY14+ puddle lamp LR051349 $82.78 list i cannot find a puddle lamp, camera combination part. which would make up for the difference of the list price. you could buy an entire used mirror and reuse the camera/light only for cheaper than just the camera new. https://www.ebay.com/itm/2010-2013-...244807&hash=item3db0136899:g:s4QAAOSw5T5fuTBd This woudlnt be the first time ive heard of a car camera being overly expensive. the nightvision camera on my audi is nearly $4k.
Yes I had thought about a full mirror, there was a used one I saw with the Camera and Puddle light in it but here is just the part one its own: https://parts.landroverlakebluff.co...9yxMEoLPCsq5ckVHzvUS8s9nPvquWelBoCqyMQAvD_BwE
Just thinking that $450 buys a nice pair of Wellies for puddles! The use mirror sounds like a perfect solution. Good headwork.
Ok so found and lowballed a guy on eBay and got the mirror and puddle light/camera module for $200 ! Was at the store the other night and the previously broken puddle light mysteriously decides do work again ?!?! Now returning the one I bought on eBay The joys of owning a Land Rover !
