The camera comes out easy. You'll need to price the 'glass' off the front, which may mean you damage the casing slightly (bit of trim needs to come off) then you'll need to re-seal it with some silicone.
Just after I bought mine it got condensation in the lens, so I removed it, cleaned the lens, re-sealed and refitted. Been fine the last 6 plus years. Wait for warmer weather though |

I think I took my panel off, and also found the rubber seal was badly fitted on the number plate surround, so re-did it.
Use the downloadable manual to find out what needs doing - it was 6 years ago I did mine on a saloon (might be easier).......... |
