The unit is a small circular shape with the plunger in the middle. Just gently prise the outer edge of the circle and the whole unit will fall into your hand. There is an orange wire, power, and a black wire fitted to the side of the unit with a 'push fit' connector.the bulb sits in the unit. Takes two seconds to remove.....I've just done it to be sure my memory wasn't failing me. ( If CB 1 or 2 read this there is no need for further comment !! ;D)
