Hello all,

How do I replace the number plate bulbs on the J10? Don't want to break plastics first!

The plastic unit holding the bulb itself can be prised out from either side. Then the bulb can be unscrewed, unplugged and replaced.

Often useful to use eBay to look at the component and work it out - e.g. https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/Nissan-QASHQAI ... 3079818240

This will give you some ideas on how to do the job, this video is for the QQ J11 but it should be very similiar. Normally depress (Red Line) one side with a small screwdriver and the unit should pop out - Dave 😉
