Rear interior light

[slartibartfast]

Can someone tell me how to get to the bulbs in the rear interior light in my 2012 facelift SE Copa so that I can fit new LED replacements. Also is there a list on the forum somewhere with the sizes and types of bulbs used please?

Not sure if it's the same unit as pre facelift but mine is a pre FL and you just prise the plastic out with a small flathead screwdriver.

G4reth speaks the truth, I just used trim removal tools down the sides. It's held in place with two spring clips on each side.

OK, so I have now removed the rear light assembly from the roof lining, (thanks for the help so far), but I cannot see any obvious way to get at the bulbs?

The two clear plastic covers pop out. Slide a very thin screw driver down the side and it'll pop out.

Yeah, no need to remove the unit from the headlining as the frosted plastic pops out making it very simple.
