The bulb covers are INSIDE the cluster so you have no option but to take it out.
I’m around junction 8 of the A1(M) so not too far from you.

Hello everyone I was thinking about having a go at doing the bulb job in the instrument cluster when my throwaway question about my problems with securing the soft top when it is down attracted so many good replies. The hood cover looks really neat and I have added it to my birthday/Christmas list. The tent peg rubbers are being sought even as we speak and I am waiting for a top down day to try out the alternative method as suggested by Paschal Carrol. I did have a brief look at accessing the bulbs by getting in from behind the instrument panel from underneath , which I was able to reach but I was afraid that I might dislodge other bulbs or connections and be unable to reattach it easily again. I will have to , which appears to be easier anyway, take out the instrument cluster. I will have to attempt it when I can have Kitty off the road for a little while. She is reliable to use every day and we still have some light evenings to come (excuses, excuses). Are there any club members that live in or around the Enfield area? It would be nice to meet up with other Quantum fans in person.

Ha ha. That's great in theory but the hood shrinks when it's not been used for a while and it's tight to get on the poppers and the front latches. Remember, I'm just a skinny wee Scotsman who's never been to a gym. My wee arms get tired.
