Quantitec Tail Lights – Rubbing?

[tobys]

Hi all,

Does anyone else have the Quantitec lights fitted to their car? If so, do they find that the lights seem to rub away at the paint?

I noticed mine did it a little while back. I touched it in but looks like it’s doing it again.

Anyone else had this? Lights were bought directly from Quantitec.

Adjust the Screw / The Pin.

turn it 1/4 or half round out.

 

thats all

@Dazh driver’s side by chance?

 

@Benutzername hmm, perhaps give that a go. I was gonna swap back to the OE lights but I do like the style. It’s rubbed the paint away quite a bit so I’ve just been out with a touch up pen to seal it.

@tobys I’ve had these fitted since last summer also purchased directly (non sequential) and can’t say I’ve noticed any problem with the paintwork and I do wash my RS quite a bit 😉 I’ll have to have a closer look.

I think these lights look ace on MG👍

MG no mods but flaps and a lovely new RS knob

Yes they won’t be seated properly, take them out and refit

I’ve had those back lights on order since Sept, certainly something to keep an eye on thanks for the heads up 👍

[Pauly Paul]

Had them on a year no problems what so ever , 👍👍cheeky pic

Thanks all. I’ve taken then off and put the OE lights back on. I suspect my driver side light may be slightly misformed as I’ve reseated a few times and it still rubs. Oh well.
