Hi, Finally got round to removing all the "bits" from my old Scorp prior to scrapping it.  Gotmost of them off but cannot remove the parcel shelf lamp cluster Sad There are two nuts visible but access is nigh on impossible.  There must be an easy way.  Anyone got a guide?

NOPE.. The only way is to remove the rear window to be able to gain access to the two nuts holding it in place......

Well not saying it's easy but it is possible.
 
Slide off the light bit then you can see the two bolts yeah.
 
Now if I remember correctly I used a socket or torx (can't remember which it is) & a pair of pliers to undo them.
I wouldn't bother as I can't see anybody wanting one thou Sad

I fitted one to my 1996 2.3. Torx bit and a small spanner.

Clive, it takes all of two minutes to get it off mate. It is a torx 25 or 30 bit and a small spanner and once you have loosened the bolts, they unscrew by hand. Doddle really and you'll get a tenner on EBay!!
