B6 estate spotted at bp weston on the green

I was following a b6 estate down the a34 yesterday morning around 6:30am. We both pulled off at bp weston on the green. I cant rememeber what colour it was but it was slammed on highline wheels with a bonnet bra.

Rear courtesy lights

Does anyone know how to remove the rear courtesy lights? The ones with lamp/alarm sensor.

Climate control clicking?

Has anyone had any problems clicking coming from behind the glove box when the blower fan is on? If i put the climate control onto recirculation the clicking stops? I have a feeling something is at fault at the climate control panel flashes when i start the car.

How many different 1.8T engines did they use on the b5? I have an APU 1.8T and im trying to find an engine cover as my one is missing.

Lower control arm?

I'm no mechanic so this might seem a stupid question. If you look at the photo is the bottom bolt thats going through a bush part of the lower control arm? If its not then whats it called? I need to replace it. https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-XemxRI3PFyA/UOyMFcnf3VI/AAAAAAAAAAk/K74dZus26og/s800/2...
