If stuck, you could try taking it to Halfords. They only charge a few quid for changing bulbs. I don't see why they shouldn't do motorhomes but it would be prudent to check first.

Have you got down on the ground and looked up under the bumper? My Hymer is a later version but I'm pretty sure that is how to access the indicators and fog lights on mine.

I wouldn't take my mother in law to halfords!

I have taken my car there twice in the last year for new headlight bulbs, which are a devil to change unless you take the engine out. They did the job perfectly well at moderate cost and I was quite happy with their service.

with bonnet off facing vehicle, on right hand side large black air filter cover. just in front of this is a large rubber bung/cover, this covers the headlamp bulb spring off the clip holding bulb, all should be self explanatory.
for the indicator bulb look further right behind the washer bottle, you should see a spring with round loop at top, pull this and lift clear. you should then be able to push complete lens with bulb out to the front.
