I have an S (98) reg 1.4 Corsa Sport and want to replace the bulb in the reading/courtesy light (above rear-view mirror). How do I do it, can't find anything on internet!

You mean the interior light? On the windscreen side there are two dimples where you can fit your keys under, give it some leverage and it comes off.
I once found a moth in the light when I took mine off, so be prepared! lol...and it was quite cooked

Got keys under, clicked it off. But it only comes off on that side, it's all still attached. There's a metal surround above it, but I think that's attached to the room trim. Next step?

Apply more force. If it breaks, at least you have it off and can fit new bulbs when refitting a new lense.
They are sturdy though and come off with a good yank or leverage...

Got it off but it doesn't go back in properly, well annoying! And the bulb I bought doesn't fit!!! Where can I get a new one?
