I have some of these units fitted to the kitchen. Unfortunately, one of them is very loose and since I am going to be tiling behind it anyway, I wanted to remove it but am having trouble doing that.

I can get access to the bulb but the unit itself just doesn't want to give. As it rocks from side to side, I'm thinking there is a screw underneath.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I'm thinking you are correct :D

You should be able to gently remove the bulb housing completely away from the triangular section (the bulb housing will still be connected to your supply so do it carefully) just leaving the triangular section behind. Look through the hole up towards the cabinet and you will probably see a single screw fastening fixing the unit to the cabinet

Got it! For anyone else that maybe will come across this, there is a metal round ring that needs to be levered out (gently) and this will reveal the 'L' bracket with screw holding it to the cabinet.

:D
