Title says it all really !

Trying to change the repeater bulb, slid a credit card underneath, half popped it out and with a little bit if pressure the lens cap came off . The manual is predictably rubbish with pictures but I get the feeling the whole lamp unit should come out and not just the plastic cap.... Am I right?

Any advice appreciated !
 
That is correct! The bulb should be screwed into the repeater casing. ? I changed my repeater casing a couple of weeks back for black and the light unit popped out with the casing.
 
Oh sod!! Thanks do the reply, confirming my fears! I couldn't even get the bulb and the repeater unit out, it half came out , at an angle and then the plastic cover popped off. Any advice on how to get the whole unit out, I'll then just glue the cap back (assume the bulb removal is out the back so this wouldn't matter....)
 
That should have read thanks for the reply not thanks do the reply !
