I have the GD estate which might differ. But on my car it looks as though you undo two set screws that are in the rear door frame recess and then slide the light assembly out.

I know you know better, Dave. :lol:
I first heard 'estate' when I bought one from an Australian Officer before me for our year in the UK. It was a Renault 21 Estate, which was so reliable and versatile (massive hauls of good food from Calais) it gave me a very good impression of Renaults. :D

I too had a Renault 21 estate...   it was a terrific car :-).   The ecu failed and after fitting a new one (very pricey) I lost my nerve and got rid :-(

Even when removing the two retaining screw's, the unit is still held in place by something and doesn't easily slide out.
