Freelaner Landy Driver Oct 19, 2011 #3 Its an 8mm on mine it takes about 5 mins. A deepish socket should do it with an extension bar, though I used snipe nosed pliers. Oh and don't try to take the glass off the interior light, pull the whole unit down gently it's on fitting springs. Last edited: Oct 19, 2011
