The switches out




Clips you push in, 2 on other side as well




Where the bulbs are (1 out already)




The bulb, the red is actually a sleeve over a clear bulb.

Ok got it figured, you need to unwind the wires at the back and pull the old bulb out. Now, if you go to maplin and order bulb pg78k (red), fit it to the existing holder and twist the wires as they were originally and bobs your uncle. If you want you could go green, blue or yellow if you fancy.
