S2 light pod pivot saggy, easy fix?

[CharlieCroker]

HI Guys, My S2 has a saggy pivot (worn fibre glass, looks to be missing a washer of some sort) on my left light pod. Is there an easy fix without removing the pod, really don't fancy taking it all apart. Any advice and photos of fixes would be great, thanks Charlie;)

There's no such thing, It's a Lotus.

John W is dead right....you'll have to get the bonnet off and remove the pod, then repair the glass fibre where needed and finally the pivot pop rivets in place, washers as required...you'll enjoy it!

When it's over.......!

Saggy pivot it is then, I'll have to leave that until my complete resto. Thanks for the heads up.

Actually it proved to be a ridiculously easy fix. Turned out to be a bolt that was missing the nut, removed the bolt, and replaced with a washer bonded to the inside of the pod to centralise the bolt. Once the new bolt and nut was in place the pod fits flush and true to the body. Well happy
