The lamp from the 4 or 4M will fit the 4+ or the 4M+.

The fuser is held together by a number of plastic tabs (about seven, I
think dotted all round the black plastic cover. Use a flat bladed
screwdriver in the various slots to press them back and gradually ease
the cover off from one end.

On no account touch the lamp glass; if you do, clean it with alcohol.
