Unfortunately, as I've just found out to my cost, the VW video fails to mention the fact that the light unit needs to be substantially detached from inside the boot lid before you can "simply prise it out". This involves removing the interior trim from the boot lid. Now I need to replace the light unit...

Thanks for this.

Cool! Thanks for that! V interesting! Any idea what tool he used to prise out the unit?

Thanks. In the estate, the nozzle is incorporated in the brake light under the spoiler and not in the wiper arm..😣.

Anyone know how to deal with this problem on an Octavia where it is difficult to see that actual nozzle hole? I had to get a small mirror to actually see the hole, but it is very awkward to hold the mirror and poke around in the hole, especially as the hole is at an angle. How do "proper" mechanics do it? Is there a special tool involved?
