You need to gently prise off the small side triangles with a screwdriver and some cloth to protect the plastic, inser it between the back of the triangle and the main lamp cluster and it will spring out. You'll find two screws under there and one on top of the lamp cluster under the bootlid. It should all pull out after that!

aparently if the lights have a white space for the reverse lights, like all rev1/2 lights, then they need to work!!
however, with rev3s (ie, an upgrade), if you dont bother getting the reverse lights in the center panel, then you dont need them to pass MOT!!
