Replacing rear light cluster on 04 Alhambra

[Lozza84]

Hi, I'm new to the site and just had a quick question re replacing a rear light cluster on an 04 Alhambra...

Does the rear bumper need to come off to remove the rear light cluster? It looks as though the base of the cluster is held in place by the bumper.

All advice gratefully received, thanks in advance

Hello Laurie, welcome to the forum.

No, you don't need to remove the bumper. The trim at the bottom of the lamp pulls off rearwards. Under the trim there is a screw and a plastic rivet securing the lamp (and the nuts on the inside).

Hi,

I've just joined as I've just got an 05 plate Alhambra and also need to replace a tail light cluster.

I've found the screw under the trim panel but the bumper bracket still seems to be in the way. Am I missing something? I don't want to blindly fiddle around and break the bracket. Also, how does the plastic rivet come out?

Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Neil...
