There is a how to and pictures on the IMOC site...... oh.........
In summary you remove the small piece that's at the side, this reveals a screw that holds the cluster on, take this out and away you go.

Well, the how to was pretty straight forward.
Get a flat head, gently hold this in the vertical groove (gap between the 2 halfs of cluster). Whilst your pushing it in wiggle it on a horizontal axis, the screwdriver should start making a gap between the two parts. The part on the side of the car (nearest the back) will unclip first, the rest is kind of self explanatory.
I did this not so long ago and only took about a minute to change the bulbs on both sides.

Aye, it's really not that hard, unless some bright spark has glued the side lens' on

just have this niggling thought that if I rip out the wiring, then the car will never get out of the garage again.
