Cerbera rear light - replacing red lens (fog) for white

[thefrog]

Hi, I have the later style rear lights on my Cerbera and would like to replace the red fog light cover with a white one.

I understand how to remove the plexiglass cover (if needed), however I wonder how the inside lens covers come off ? Are they bonded, screwed, etc... ?
Also, where can the lens itself be found (other than buying a complete near side cluster second hand) ? Searches with the usual suppliers have drawn a blank.

Thanks

Bumpety bump anyone ?

Thanks GT6k, this looks like what I have. I can unscrew the fitting from the back to get to the bulb, is the light unit itself glued/sealed/bonded at all, or just held in place by the screw fitting at the back clamping the lot together.

What ya gonna do if its foggy? Wont pass MOT? Red bulb? enjoy!

I'm exporting the car to Europe and need to switch reverse/fog to be on the correct side of the car, I'll either go white both sides with a red bulb if it works, or swap them. I'd prefer not to have to remove/reseal both covers but will do it I have to.

Are you suggesting red bulbs don't work (aside from GT6k's comments on LED ones) ?

I believe in the UK the fog light has to have a red lense. Not sure of the status elsewhere.

I'll check

Would fishing or thin metal wire work ? More gentle than a sharp knife.

Thanks for the extra information everyone. Checked legal requirements in France and as long as the fog light emits red light it's ok, so a clear lens with red bulb should be ok.

I will double check with the equivalent of our MOT inspectors before doing anything. Worst case, I'll have to do both sides and swap red/white.

Sounds like a bit of a faff, but then again... it's a TVR.
