    I've done this. It is a rare example of a job that is even easier than you think it should be.

    However, you can't buy just the glass on its own and have to buy a whole new unit at £50+ quid (though you do end up with a spare bulb). Once you have the new unit it is obvious how to remove and replace it.

    Pull the surrounding grille off first (start at the inboard end). That exposes a single screw that you need to undo. Unplug the electrical connector. Refitting is the reverse of removal.

    Yep as Axe says, start pulling at the inboard side, it is harder to get a grip there, but the clips are at the inboard end, the outboard end has the tounges that locate into slots, if you pull the outboard end first you could snap off the tounges.
    But it is an easy job, just a pity the trim is not held on with screws, then it would be even easier.
