I have the drawer and this comes out, but needs a really good tug to release it.

I imagine it is the same for the cubby. If you have the radio out, try pushing it from behind, harder than you would imagine it needs :lol: and pop, it will fly out ;)

Then you will see the two screws for the heater panel fixing (arrowed)

You will be looking for some T5 286 wedge lamps but check they are not too long and match the ones you take out.
