The switch is stuck on.

It will most probably be the switch, which is in the linkage if you dont know!

Whip it out and give it a clean and some WD40

Just had a look, gonna have to take the exhaust off to get it off..
As there is no room to get it off. it must be that, coz i diconnected the 2 wires, which turned the reverse light's off.

First mini turbo to get in the 12's & site perv

Herefordshire

undo the 2 bolts behind the gear lever inside the car and it will magically drop, thus one's exhaust can stay in place

Just unwind it a few turns until the lights go out and then lock it off.
