Hi All,
Hoping you can help me with a very simple question. My friend has got an 02 plate 206cc. I noticed she'd got a blown rear tail light tonight, so I offered to change it for her.
I managed to remove the light unit itself by unscrewing the black plastic nut, and unplugging the wiring connector. However, I then couldn't see how to get at the bulbs themselves - it didn't help being dark. The repair guide on here only goes as far as telling me how to remove the light unit.
Am I right in thinking to get to the bulbs I need to remove the silver nut which the black plastic nut was attached to?
If someone could give me a quick guide on how to do it I'd really appreciate it!
Many Thanks...

I looked up the instructions, then as per above looked in manual all sounded complicated. When I just went out there, it was so simple.
Open boot - peel back the carpet cover, undo plastic washer with hand, disconnect power cable, whole light unit pops out.
Unbolt the small brass looking bolt in middle takes two seconds, unit with 3 bulbs pops out, change bulb, do the reverse, took me 5 mins well chuffed
