| My glovebox light bulb needs replacing also, but couldn't find anything in the manual about changing it. Was going to just pull out the fitting, but not sure thats a good idea now!.... ![]() |

| No don't bother, get another one from a scrap yard, I'm sure it'll be the same for nearly all VAG's ![]()

| Been to a VW scrapyard today that has a small selection of Fabias. I got a new light and took a few pics to help anyone that needs it. I've also got a spare one now! It is actually quite easy to get it back together once you know which way around everything goes.
