Anyone know if and how the individual lamp units on the later four x round-light clusters can be removed from the pods - do they just pull out or are they likely to be bonded in?

I ask as I need to dry out a load of condensation and don't really want to detatch the clear cover...

Mine screw in from the rear, IIRC

Thanks but don't meant the bulb holders, I mean the actual individual coloured lensed lamp units

The rear clear cover has to come off to access the individual coloured lenses

If you have the same as the ones as on my Cerb, 4 individual lights behind a perspex cover, then easiest way I found was using a hair drier. To get the cover off I heated it until the sealer became soft, slit it with a blade and it pulled right away. For the lights heat them from the lens side and push hard from the rear and they pop out. When the seal is hot it's easy to pull away without damaging the paint.
