How to change the rear light bulb?

Post by Ricey » Mon Jan 04, 2010 9:54 am

Hi I need help asap I cannot change the rear light bulb. I have taken off the black cover and have found that they have these odd looking covers over where the lights are stowed. I tried twisting them as I thought they maybe screw on but no luck. Help would be much appreciated. :)

Sorry forgot to add its a 2004 model.

Twist each of the holders anticlockwise about 45 degrees and it just pulls out. The bulb then fits into that holder (bayonet fitting)
