Side repeater bulb in the wingmirror seems to have stopped working. Ive managed to unclip the wingmirror cover but i cannot get the plug out from the side repeater bulb. Has anyone done this before?

Are they not sealed units on these? I changed one on a Golf and from what I remember they aren't that expensive from VW anyway. I'm pretty sure they are held in my 2x Torx screws, T10's

This bit should do, it might be easier to unplug once it's loose, there may be a screw under the mirror glass, which just pops off..but be careful
