Instructions assume that you can open it. I can't figure out how to open it. Anybody else figured it out????
 
I haven't seen the Lidl switch, but most outdoor switches have a big rocker which either pulls off or you lever it off carefully with a screwdriver.
Behind the rocker are two fixing screws.

I've just found a picture of the two gang switch on the Lidl website and it looks like the above will work, the two rockers just clip into the switch bodies.

Eventually figured it out - only by looking at a damaged switch in Lidl. It is necessary to prise off the rockers of the switch, which then gives you access to screws. When unscrewed, the switch opens. No mention of this in instructions. Rocker can then be easily replaced.
