Title: changing rear bulbs
Post by: Jodypamplin on January 28, 2006, 02:35:27 PM
How is this done? Have heard that it is simply unscrewing the screws and sliding the cluster off to access the bulbs but this has not been successful so far!

Can someone provide a clear process of how to do this?

Cheers

unscrew the three srews that hold the black plastic cover (the bit in where the boot lid sits) Then you just pull they will be very tight..... if you look down the back of the light you will see that its held in by two clips.... these just pull off but they are very tight .....

hope this helps

BTW the light units  pull off sideways toward the outside of the car.

Cheers fellas, have done it now, but I was a little reserved about yanking on the lights too hard - sorted  :)
