Quick question,

how do you change the side indicator bulb, does the cover just pop of, or do you do it from the foot well?

I think you have to pop the lamp assembly out of the wing, it is held in by a clip ( broken off in picture) on both vertical sides, I found it a bit of a pig,hence broken clip, because lamp was designed to click into a thin metal wing not a thick fibreglass one and on original fitment perhaps you can get behind wing to squeeze clips in! suggest stick lots of masking tape around lamp to protect paintwork.

Deffinatly go from inside.

Grab the unit, not the wires, turn anti clockwise, then pull out, it's a bayonet fixing, been doing this recently coz 1 don't work.
just been out to my car and tried it again, this is the way.

Don't try from outside.
