Anyone have any tips on how to remove the spider from the tail light ?
I have removed the light housing, easy enough but the unit seems sealed, how the **** did it get in ?

RAID / MORTEIN? - I have a spider living my passenger side mirror! I've blasted it with water, high pressure air hose - But RAID/ Mortein was the only thing that got rid of my hitchhiker!

Yes a little spray to kill it and it then cant hold on to resist your attempts to get it out.. Not too much or you will be working out how to clean the spray off the inside of the glass LOL

These lights use LED not bulbs. I cannot find a way in.
The spider is dead, well it has not moved overnight and does not move when I shake the light.
Maybe I need to google some more to find some of those skyline taillight mod DIYs to see how they open it up.

Vacuum cleaner???? Give it a hard bump against your other hand to see if that will get spider to move
