Which light switch do you mean?

like this one, on the righthand side of the steering wheel, its like a half circle shape beside air vents lol......this switch is built into it;

get small flat head screw driver, push it up under the bottom right hand side and give it a good old pull in a kind of upwards and out direction, there pretty tight in there. When you get it out you'll see the arm that was holding it on.

I'm sure your supposed to turn it so pointing its inbetween one of the three signs at the top then pull.

cant remember which way tho as its been a while.

get at it from the glove box underneath its got two large clips which just push up and out from the bottom of the switch unit, can also get at the side clips by taking the dial surround off.

If its anything like the golf ones you have to push the switch in and rotate it anticlockwise then the whole switch comes out.

I got a flat headed screwdriver on the vent side and popped it out.
