Reversing Lights

[izzycurtis]

My wife's C3 1.6 Exclusive reversing lights refuse to work.

This will be the bulbs I thought, but bulbs were fine. So it must
be the fuse. After much fiddling about I checked the fuse which
was also OK.

So, now I guess it must be the reversing switch or the
connection. Can anyone tell me where the switch lives
on this model of the C3.

Also - the B pillar noise is driving me mad. It reminds me of 'scuttle shake'
from a 70's convertible. I've read the posts re the mastic & rivets solution
but what causes the problem in the first place?

Probably down to poor build quality, not enough or not strong enough mastic.
The problem started on mine on a very hot day, the car had been roadside parked all day and as I pulled away form my kerbside spot the body twist from the road camber change induced the initial cracking noise and then I had the subsequent creaking / clicking.
