Hi on entering the habitation door right in front of me is a Led vertical strip light about 4 foot tall on the end of the Dinet bench seat , has anyone replaced this lamp as it is trapped behind the vertical Perspex lens , if you have could you advise me how to replace the Led strip light. it looks like a nightmare.

I think this is led tape rather than a lamp , which I think is stuck on with self adhesive tape to the perspex

Hi TG1903 ,yes it is a stick on Led and it is behind the vertical Perspex , trouble is when I looked at dismantling it looks complicated unless the perplex is stuck on ,I'm a bit scared if I pull on it the Perspex will break, thanks for comments if you actually know how to remove Perspex that would be a great help as I have the length of led lights.

By looking at it there is screws which hold the plastic curved bit on at the top behind head rest and also under the seat cushions beside the water tank, I wld presume this would take it off and allow you to replace the Led Tape , which looks like it's stuck on with self adhesive tape , as mine was coming apart after 37 degrees temps in the van in Germany, I just used a Stick like s**t to re attach it

When you say it's coming away in the heat ,do you mean the vertical Perspex ? sorry along while coming back thanks

Yes , it looked like the adhesive had got soft and started to detach from the seat , re attached with adhesive and it's been fine
