From memory though:

Remove the back cover housing
You will see a Red/Black igniter, twist that gently and pull down, carefully pull out the wires connected to it at the side
Unscrew the bulb housing and gently pull down, do not touch the glass part of the bulb
The Bulb type is D2S, Facelifted MINI's 05 onwards.
It's pretty straightforward when you see start dis-assembling, just don't go in heavy handed

thanks mate! ill give it a pop this weekend, my mini is an R52 (2002) are the bulbs still D2S if i need new uns? cant beleive mini charging so much!!!
