Parking today, sickening crack, broke light cluster on thoughtlessly placed bollard.

Need to replace it. How easy is this? Do I need to remove all the plastic panelling in the boot?

Hop to get one from breakers yard if I'm lucky. Otherwise - Fiat prices... (n)

Advice welcomed (including suggestions for where a replacement O/S/R light cluster for Y reg Multi can be purchased cheaply!)
 
Have had to buy from Fiat (one breakers yard wanted more spondulicks than Fiat!) :bang: £64 supplied inc VAT (managed to get 10% discount!). Now I stil need to fit it. Any helpful suggestions before I set to with the Phillips? Thanks.

its held on by 3x 10mm nuts,get at by opening flap that hides the tool kit,where you can get at two nuts,the 3rd is behind the round bung with peg sticking out[holds seat belt when seat is removed]..............................

They're easy to remove, three 10 mm nuts for each cluster but the threads the nuts go on are longer than standard; it will make things a lot easier if you get hold of a deep 10 mm socket. It's not the length of the bar that's important; the socket needs to have enough depth to let the thread the nut goes up through the centre of the socket, with enough room left for the bar to fit the end of the socket
