Bought this off eBay for £9.99
Don't have any decent scrappys near me
Image
Prise light out.. Spring catch at the front keeps it in
Image
Unplug light.. Unscrew 2 torx screws
Image
Pull out original trim.. Back to front
Image
Mark out the size of the new hole.. Measure twice and cut once lol
Image
Cut out the new hole.. I used a stanley knife.. Ensure blade is sharp
And remove metal surround
Image
The black part on the back of the sunglasses holder unclips off the grey part
Remove the black part.. 4 clips.. And put this in roof lining
Image
Plug microphone back in.. If you have one
Make sure wires for light are accessible
Clip in new trim.. Clip front in then back
Image
Plug light back in and replace
Insert sunglasses
Sit back and appreciate

Looking at doing this next weekend.
But a bit clueless when it comes to the lights with the map reading lights aswell, are there different wires or whatever that i'll need to add/wire to somewhere for them to work aswell, or is it all incorporated into the main light?

Theres two plugs on the standard light unit which just go straight on to the unit with map lights, these power all the lights.

Brilliant, thanks alot :D
I'm dreading cutting the roof liner apart though :( Don't even want to consider messing up and then putting up with a huge hole in the liner until i get a probably very expensive new one!!
