Numpty question
 
Lights
How are these lights normally mounted? How do i non-destructively get to the bulb/socket without access to the rear?
Regards,
David

I think the chrome part just presses into the groove in the black rubber. a little wd40, tug and maybe pry back the rubber with a flat head.

Thanks. I was surprised they're only held in by the rubber. I was expecting a hidden screw/lever somewhere non-obvious

The plastic cap is inserted into the inner lip of the rubber part, and the metal ring is inserted between the inner and the outer lip of the rubber
part, and holds the plastic cap in place. I had these lights on my car and they never fell off.
The model on the link nick9one1 published are slightly different from mine (bought at Car Builder Solutions
(linky))
: mine are flat and flush, and need only very small holes to be drilled, just to pass screws and wires.
