Default Help replacing reversing / backup bulb

Hi All.

One of my reversing / backup lights isn't working. So, I thought I'd have a go at replacing it myself.

I've taken out the clips holding the inner boot (trunk) trim in place in order to get access. However, what I see is nothing like what is shown in the RC-F manual.

My car looks like this -



No sure what to do next.

Help please

EDIT: Forgot to say - 2015 RC-F

Yep - just to save the time of anyone else with a UK spec RC-F, the RHS reversing / backup light is actually a fog lamp. It appears that the left hand side is the only reversing lamp.

Big thank to my mate (who also drives an RC-F) for pointing out my only one working reversing light

When I was overseas, I remember it was pretty common for vehicles to have only 1 reverse light, but glad you got your answer.
