Title: Scorpio Estate - Number plate bulb replacement Post by Oliver on Sep 8th, 2005, 4:31pm It's MOT time and I need to replace one of the number plate light bulbs located in the rear bumper (Estate). I haven't tried it but is it a simple matter of just pulling out the holder? Could someone give me some tips so I don't end up damaging the paint. Cheers, Oliver |

If you gently prise up one end the unit should come away quite easily.The holder then separates ( by twisting the lower half through 90deg) to allow access to the capless bulb.You can always protect the paintwork with a piece of masking or insulating tape if you wish. |

No one minds giving advice The old saying is 'It's easy when you know how ' !. Glad to have helped. Good luck with the MOT. |
