Rear Number Plate Bulbs

[DINO]

Hi all,

As the topic says, I have a IS200, had a look in the manual to replace the bulbs, and its not in there. Anyone know how I change them. Do you replace them from the outside, as I opened up the lineing inside, and cannot get to them from there. Cheers

Not sure about the is but on mine you have to undo the bolts and take the whole light unit out

That wouldn't get to the number plate lamps though. On the MK1 GS they are levered out from the bumper to change the bulb. Maybe the IS ones work the same, large flat bladed screwdriver to unclip them.

Sorry fellas, I did not mention that they are above the number plate, so part of the boot lid.

This diagram tends to make it look like they unclip/lever out

I thought there was something in the workshop section that covered this.

I remember following a guide from Mike Morse when I changed mine and I think it was from there.
