Arch Lamp Bulb Replacement

What's the trick to removing the rear arch lamp in order to replace the bulb? Just pry it out? 2003 Cooper. Thanks!

You take off the wheel, then the liner and go from the inside. Really only need to take off that side of the liner.

I am pretty certain that using the search function would have answered this for you faster.

R60 Countryman rear side wheel are bulb replacement

Hey there I have seen links to replacing the bulb for the rear wheel arch marker, well on my 2015 countryman, if you lay on your back directly under the exhaust pipe and look up to the left or right, depending in the side you need to replace, you will see the socket for the bulb. Slightly cramped but it is accessible and requires no tools, but maybe a skinned knuckle.

Yeah, you can't do that on an R50.
