it will be the interior lamp fuse... the stereo, clock, and interior lights all draw theyre power from the same circuit.. cheeck the fuse.. and if it blows again have a good look at the wiring near the boot lamp

yeah its the fuse, soon as the body of teh globe holder touches the car it shorts out. You got to replace the fuse once the globe is in again. Otherwise you will short it putting it back into place, that what happened to me.

Cheers

Pull the fuse first, then replace the globe.
