Ok, I'm lucky enough to have just bought a very nice 3 year old Mk8 Jumbo to replace my 10 year old Mk7. But the clip on one of the side marker lights is broken so it doesn't stay in position properly. So I've bought a replacement but can't work out how to change it over. I realise it should only take a couple of minutes but I can't reach the electrical connector inside the side rubbing strip so presumably I'm going to have to take this strip off first. And of course I don't know where the clips for that are so I don't want to just start yanking at it. Plus at one end that strip is covered by the wheel arch rubbing strip. Which is itself covered by the bottom strip.
So is there an easy way of doing this? Would I do better to just cut the wires and solder the replacement marker light in?
Thanks!
