Sorry, it's a spoiler-off job, fittings are underneath, afaik, and the "bulbs" are LED's so NOT easy to source or replace

Well, mines not LED bulbs, I managed to remove the red strip, theyre normal but small bulbs, but getting them out to replace them is a nightmare, ive destroyed one already

Looks like ill have to remove the spoiler

Try Maplins for the bulbs, or replace the whole lot with white LED's Cost you a few quid, but they'll last for ever.
