Simple really! How do I get to the brake light to change it? tried undoing the 3 bolts holding on the surround, got it lose but no way to remove it that I could see, my Doby is a van with internal panels fitted, does that make a difference?

Many thanks

hi, dont know if the van is the same as the car, but on my doblo i had to remove a hidden bolt, it was under a rubber bung, it is quite deep between the inner and outer skin, you have to be careful not to loose the bolt when you exract it, hope this is of some help to you, regards, geoff.
 
It's a nut - it looks like a piece of tube was crimped to a thread.
The back of the light cluster has a threaded bar coming out of it, the nut screws onto this & holds the cluster against the body.
In the dobby tool kit you should have a small hand tool for removing nuts, I'd put a bit of blue tack into it to help hold the nut as you pull the tool out.
Alternatively, use a socket set (I think it's 15mm? - OK, it might not be but it's been a while)
