    R36 wagon tail light problem

    Hi all,

    I noticed the other day that th RH rear tail light chrome disc has come loose. You can see the difference between the two lights. I thought it would be worth asking if this is repairable at all before I waste hours removing the light only to find its a sealed unit with no access to this area. If it is repairable does anyone have a guide to remove?

    Thanks. Scott.

    Thanks for that. Wow. That looks easy to remove. Only one screw and some clips. I was expecting a heap of screws on the inside like other cars I've owned.
