Seniramsu Posted March 29, 2019 Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 Hello All, So was going to replace some burned out bulbs on the fog lights and have a bolt that is just spinning. There is no gap to get underneath it and was wondering if anyone has any tips or tricks to get it out besides just cutting the head off. 2013 Volvo 780 -Brad 2013 Volvo 780 "Grunt" D13 I-Shift w/ ET Hitch 2016 Cyclone 4200 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad NSW Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 They are usually secured into pop rivets and it's probably come loose and is just spinning. Same thing happened to me a few weeks ago with the overhead marker lights. I ended up pulling out the pop rivet, then got some steel expanding Tbolts. Put one through the hole and screwed the screw into it, to secure the new light. Other option is to get a pop rivet tool and try to install a new pop rivet (or go to a dealer and they could probably replace it). Good luck! 2010 Freightliner, DD15 Eaton Ultrashift, 2015 New Horizons 5th Wheel. Occupants - Dena/Brad/Hershey BLOG LINK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
