    Ive just noticed that one of the licence plate lights is moving around and both screws are turning without gaining any grip.
    Anybody else had this problem?Is it a quick fix, does the bumper have to come off? The bulb is still working and its not hanging outside of its housing on the bumper
    Maybe a clip or similar has given up
    Thanks in advance

    The two screw's only hold the lens on to the assembly, the complete light assembly is a push fit into the bumper and comes out at the right hand side (first) of the assembly (looking at the back of the car) using a flat screw driver to ease the spring catch/clip.

    Many thanks for that
    I was in your neck of the woods a couple of weeks ago on the way to Grantown on Spey/Inverness/Loch Ness(no sign of Nessie). I enjoyed the trip once I got off the motorway and onto the A9 A most enjoyable road at 60mph

    Update: Plastic clip snapped on light assembly. New one from dealer for £6. Fitted and back to normal First thing to go wrong in 27 months
