My passenger side overhead light has packed in and I need to replace the bulb (the circular lights above the rear view mirror).
Anyone know how to remove the light fitting to get access?
 
If they are the same as mine then with the glasses holder open you can easily remove the trim around the lights by levering it at the rear, downwards. This exposes the reflectors and the bulbs,
which are capless critters.... one of mine was a right bugger to remove but they just pull push fit .EAA0A6D5-4777-4274-8EFF-FB53657EB9CF.jpeg

With mine i had to remove the glasses holder first and to do that
i had to remove the control panel.
The light panel is just an easy push fit with probably 2 clips, but i released
it from above.

I think the lense comes off, there was a thread about led upgrades to that
light but i cant find it.
