Anyone know where I can get some, would rather buy them fixed on the bracket if poss as my soldering skills are nil....

Also re removal of the OBC, do I need to take out the radio etc to get it out as I've read it needs to come out arse end if you know what I mean....

Cheers

No problem buying them "on the bracket". Your local BMW dealer will be more than happy to relieve you of well over £20 in exchange for one.
Just that a lot of us object to paying that kind of money for a couple of 30p lamps.
You can get at two of the securing nuts with a nut spinner by reaching in around from the glovebox after removing the top and side access panels, and the right hand two nuts can be reached through the radio hole, by removing the radio and the frame.
Taking out a couple of the switches above the radio allows you to see what you're doing.
