Okay guys, how do you change the light bulb in the convience/map light over the rear seats?? They are embedded into the headliner and I don't want to just pull it out and ruin the light or headliner.
Thanks!

If you're referring to the large center courtesy lamp set the lens itself pop's out for bulb replacement.
Now if it's the smaller individual courtesy lamps take a small screwdriver slide it between the lamp assembly lip and headliner then gently push in to release the locking tab(switch end) and the lamp assembly should pull down to get to the bulb.

Bill,
Actually I am talking about the little ones for the second row. They are about the size of a quarter or half-dollar...
I might need to go out and take a picture of it......

Hey sorry for the slow post on this one but if you use a pick on the lens it will pop right out and won't wear out the thin headliner. I replaced all mine with LEDs

If the listening level is too loud, please inform the driver, so he can promptly pull over, and let you out.

Bill and Bill,
Thanks that link was what I needed!!  I just didn't want to destroy anything.
Also, the other Bill, where did you get your LED's from? Are they just as bright, maybe a little brighter??

A little warning one can go broke like I did changing them all out.  They are a lot brighter and I don't worry about one getting left on over night.

Which one did you order? How did you do the conversion?Was it plug and play or did you have to break out the soldering iron,etc?
