hmmmm for some reason i hadnt thought it could be the electrics to the bootlid, its a weak point, does anyone else have to move the cable out of the way everytime they shut the boot. where it comes in on the left of the boot and loops before going into the boot it gets trapped when i shut the boot, to the point where for the first 96k of its life the owner obviously just shut the boot and trapped the cable, if you look closely the boot doesnt sit quite right
ive tried tying it back but its just easier to move the cable as you shut the boot.
if it is the electrics to the bootlid then judging by how many 166's ive seen with the 2 inner lights out its quite a common fault.
