this worked for me, but instead of putting nuts on I rested the flat part of a spanner over the bottom of the bolts and tapped the spanner with a hammer. either way works  |

Nothing other than the rubber gasket having become rather fond of both the lamp and boot lid...
See previous posters for how to proceed. |

| If that doesn't work as it didn't on mine I got a piece of a cardboard to protect the paint and a small screw driver and pryed it out. |

Hi,
Had a search as thought this would be already covered but it appears not?, basically I'm trying to remove my top bake light the long one along the time. Opened boot removed 2 bolts thinking it would just push up put it won't move I didn't want to really force it incase there was something else holding it in?
Thanks in advance. |
