Hi,
thanks for that - no problem removing the corner light cluster but the bonnet light cluster is proving a bit more reluctant. Seems there's some sort of fixing behind the locking mechanism, you can see it below one of nut spindles. Bl**dy difficult to get to - any ideas?
Cheers
Paul

5 nuts hold it on.
That's just a plastic locating peg, probably just the rubber seals sticking.

Cheers Dave,
I was hoping someone confirmed that - didn't want to tug too hard & break it in 2.
