3.8 reverse lamp bulb holder.

Hi,
Can anyone tell me if the bayonet bulb holder assembly can be removed from the reverse lamp pressing?
If so, how best to remove it as I am looking to replace them, with something like this.




I’ve cleaned the existing ones up but they are a little intermittent in operation.

They are not intended to be removed so far as I recall. The holder is crimped onto the back plate.

Ok, thanks. I’ll put the big hammer away then.

Richard, dump the bulb and bulholder and ask Marek for his brilliant combined LED reversing light + 3rd brake light. I fitted it and its superb. Very discreet, very bright...

Having read your reply and scratched my head, I’ve realised I’ve asked the right question, but about the wrong part
I meant to ask if the bayonet holder can be removed from the number plate lamp pressing!
(I’ve already upgraded the reverse lamp)
