Stupid Question - Replacing bulb on Mk2 MR2

[51mon]

Need to replace a brake light bulb on my '96 MR2, but can figure out how the hell I get to it! Probably missing something really simple, but it looks as though I need to remove the light cluster as I cant see anything resembling a bulb fitted into the back of it?

Theres the big black grommet which I can remove - this looks like its for the indicator bulb, but other than this there are just 2 white plasitc bits sticking out from the back of the cluster.
Im sure theres probably a dead simple way of doing it and im just being daft......!

Any help much appriciated!

from memory dont you remove the silver trim around the headlight glass and the thing kind of drops out?

Not when changing the brake light

OK - the corner reflectors just pop out, I use a flat blade screwdriver with tape around the tip.

Once you've done that there are a couple of screws behind there, and then open the boot and there are a couple of screws holding the cluster in.

Undo them, the whole cluster comes out and you can put your new bulb in.

Ah, easy when you know how eh......! Cheers for that, will have another look at work tommorrow, though there'd be a trick I was missing!
