Now I am back in the P38 foray, I have devised a method for the swap out of the clock lamp....dead simple....
First, ensure you have neough space for the job.
Next, get a small bottle jack and raise the front of the vehicle
Ensure you have space to get the gearbox cross member out
Begin the strip out of the interior with special attention paid to the centre console
Remove all the exterior body panels - you should have something like this by now:
Now, using a 1/4" socket set and a 3 tonne bottle jack, lift the body off the chassis:
Now remove the running gear and place in a chassis rig to ensure the chassis remains true while the bulb is replaced in the socket
Refit is the reverse....
