I have a 2007 Adria Twin on a Fiat Ducato. Does anyone know how you access the rear light cluster to renew or change bulbs? I have been scratching my head trying to work out how to remove the cluster to access the bulbs. Any help or tips would be appreciated. Many thanks
David

Are there no interior access panels directly behind the light clusters?
That's how to gain access to the rear bulbs on most modern vehicles.

as above, there should be some kind of cover/s for you to gain access, hope your hands are not too big, as inside there is just enough room for you to undo the five sided nut (I think its a five sided), please note it is not a nut that you would be familiar with, it is like a 50 pence only slightly smaller, if you cannot undo it by hand then have a look at your jack wheel/brace kit, there a tool in there for you to use, I suggest a strong magnet on a piece of string at this point in case you drop the bloody thing like I did, do not overtighten them and have somebody holding the light cluster from outside in case it drops, although it will, be attached to the rear lights wiring plug, good luck

Thank you both for your help, I will have a good look this weekend. All I can see at present is a small plastic storage area both sides just behind the clusters, I think. On the right hand side looking into the rear is the fixed bed and underneath is the gas bottle compartment. Maybe I can remove the small storage areas and get access that way. The standard Fiat handbook doesn't take account of any conversions and I havn't found any other clues searching online either. Good idea about the magnet. Thanks once again

They are held on by tin nuts you access through a hole at the back with a 17mm box spanner as I recall well on the Ducato van with out the conversion.

Thanks. Fortunately I havn.t yet had a bulb blow but wondered how to access because of the conversion. I will have a good look at the weekend and post a reply in case other Adria Twin owners are wondering how to access.
Cheers all
