Re: Number plate bulbs
Hi Alan,
If you've not sorted this already and I assume it's a Qubo, take the rear panel off the tailgate (violent sounding snapping as the poppers unpop but don't worry) then you can access the lights. You might not need to remove the whole panel to access the light clips.
They are a simple clip-in but have a good look which way as they have two sides to unclip but once one's off you'll see how. They're a PITA - it's the most often seen warning light I get on the dash plus a MOT failure once (service guy cured it - 95p!)
(Then I see this was in the Fiorino section... perhaps the mounting is the same for universal parts - in which case I'd guess the same applies, remove the panel cover as the lights can't be removed from outside the vehicle. I never had any issues with the van that needed a change of light - a firm thump on the back door sorted any 'light-out' issue!)
