changing mk5 lights, and the lights in the tailgate seem a nightmare to get off. its mainly the bolt holding them in, cant get a spanner or ratchet in there, anyone got any ideas. ive tried removing the surround cover with no luck.

I found using an open end spanner (10mm iirc) and having someone hold the boot open and parallel to the floor allowed sufficient access through the two plastic panels to unscrew the nuts.
