rear interior light case

[ctarry]

how do i get the case off the rear interior light on 02 leon cupra

the bulb has gone, i am trying to get in it to see what bulb i have to get, but can't even get the case thing off.

had a look in the manual, it says use a flat blade of a screwdriver between the light and roof trim, and carefully lever the bulb holder out, by the bottom corner

tried this, with no luck



is there some catches or something that conects it, which i just haven't found

Put a flat bladed screwdriver very carefully on the side nearest to the front of the car, on either light between the side plastic and roof lining.
There is a clip that if you push in should be able to pop up the light up on the side. It will then lift out.
The bulb is kept in a small turn style cap that can be undone with the screw driver.

As R6_Allan said, BUT be careful as there are metal clips that hold the unit in the roof lining - when I removed mine to fit LEDs I managed to lose the clips somewhere in the roof and had to use blutak to hold them in place! Works fine but I was cursing myself at the time.
