    If your just changing bulbs you only have to remove the glass panel by popping it off and then the bulbs should just pull out. Use a small screwdiver with some cloth round it to remove cover.

    Becareful as the lights can also get hot. Best to do it in full daylight not ith the interiour lights on!

    If I remember correctly you have to remoive the glass bit to take the binnacle down from the roof anyway.. there are a couple of screws behind the glass and a couple behind the sunglass holder or blanking plate.

    As already said, if you are just changing the bulbs, you can do it with the light still in the roof.
