Hey,
Bit of a dumb question coming...

But does anyone know how to replace the rear light cluster from a facelifted model. Mines got a crack in the left hand side and I wanna change it.

Cheers,
Steve.

Simple....
Open boot
Twist the Black knob on the bulb holder anti clockwise and remove
Unplug connector from centre of light unit by pressing the 2 side tabs together
Remove 6 x 8mm nuts securing the light
Remove light unit from car
Clean the area before refitting
Refit is reverse of removal
10 minute job even for a novice
:D
