Before I bust anything and swear a lot.....

So my LEDs will have arrived today so before I break any panel clips and shout lots of profanity at my car - sidelights are pretty self explanatory but how do I change:-

Number plate bulbs
Indicators side repeaters
Boot light
Interior light?

For my interior and boot I just uses a terminal screwdriver and levered them out, I think the number plate is the same but I'm not sure about the side repeaters

You're right! That's £250 in the bonus bank......

In all seriousness though...... Suggestions?

Number plate bulbs- flat head screwdriver to gentle pull the whole light unit out (black case the lens is attached to) then gently remove the lens by releasing the clips on the side. Remove and replace bulb then replace lens and push whole unit back into place.
Indicators side repeaters- In same are as sidelights, unplug the wiring loom from back of the bulb then twist to release bulb. Put new bulb in and twist to secure then replace wiring loom.
Interior light - pull of plastic cover, pull out bulb, put in new bulb. If you struggle to get the bulb out you can take the whole light unit out and push it from behind.

With the 501 bulbs test them to make sure they turn on, if not just turn them around and they should work then.
I'm writing this from memory of doing it a while back so don't take my word for it and use it as a rough guide. I take no responsibility in any breakages.

Cool thanks chap! For the side repeaters - do I pull them out of the wing or push them out from the back then remove wiring loom??

Oh sorry I thought you meant the one in the headlights, the side ones I haven't done personally but think you have to gently ease it of with a flathead and from there I don't know. Its worth putting a cloth around it though to protect your paint from getting scratched.

Not to worry bud, that's what I thought.
