Thought that some preventive maintenance would be worthwhile after reading this thread so today went and removed mine. For some reason the bolts holding the right hand light fitting were corroded and took some careful force to remove but, thankfully, they did unscrew. Phew! Quite why both the right hand side were affected and not the left hand one I am not sure though, like HP (I think?), I have had issue with water ingress on the right hand side of the boot lid.
Anyway cleaned the lenses/ fittings up ready to get some LEDs, applied some copperease to the bolts and threaded inserts and put all back together.
Good heads-up
