is correctly positioned around the lamp. Engage the tongue at
the rear end of the lamp unit with the body flange, and press the
front end of the lamp firmly down until a distinct ‘click’ is heard, indicating engagement of the retaining clip. Pull up on the front
end of the lamp to check security.

state law, Lotus Cars USA requires that, before you seek
a remedy, you provide Lotus Cars USA (at the address
set forth above) with written notification of the defect or
nonconformity. In this way, Lotus Cars USA will be afforded an opportunity to perform any necessary repairs. Where ap
