How to access brake light bulb
« on: August 10, 2019, 11:10:05 AM »
Following on from my spare parts post last weekend, I have now sourced a rear light cluster from Ebay. It comes with bulbs, then I got to wondering where the rear/brake light dual filament bulb is. Is assume its behind the little panel at the top but I can't get the panel open, is there a knack, any suggestions?

The Brake light is a fixed LED unit. It's non user replaceable.
Which means if it goes, then the whole cluster must be replaced.
But they are LED, so shouldn't need replacing in the normal life time of the car. :)

Ah, I see, that makes sense. Thank you.
Next up, actually doing the cluster replacement.

Light cluster replacement, less than 10 mins, couldn't be easier
