Heater Control Lights - No Bulb Holder?

Howdy, new here and reasonably new to Corsa's although I've fixed a few bits myself since having it.

I have the Haynes guide and after spending what seems forever getting to the back of the heater controls, I discovered there was no bulb holder, infact mine seemed to be a complete unit, as in you can't change the bulbs you have to replace the whole thing?

Haynes manual shows a removable or moveable bulb holder, but I can the see the bulbs on the circuit and they're kind of 'molded' into the plastic that secures the whole thing,.

Has anybody seen or had this issue before?

Just read this, basically the Haynes manual doesn't make it as simple.

What I did was pull the whole unit / centre from the dashboard, exposing the cables for heater controls and everything, I didn't realise it was as simple as the above.

Cheers ;)
