A small flathead screwdrive to pry open some of the clear plastic lenses will be neeeded. And I think that's it

The wedge-type bulbs are in plastic holders. To remove them:
1. Shut off the cabin lights. This will allow the bulbs to cool. Needless to say, doing the swap in the daytime is the best way.
2. Locate the lights - they're behind rectangular plastic lenses.
3. Pry gently against the edge of the lens with a small flat screwdriver and the housing will drop down. The bulb is clipped into this housing.
4. Using a handkerchief or a paper towel, grasp the bulb and pull straight out (not down or to the sides). The wedge bulb will pop out.
5. Replace with the new bulb by grasping it with the paper towel or handkerchief and pushing straight in. Replace housing and test the lights. If one does not light, remove it and spread the tiny wires at the base away from the glass with the small screwdriver - sometimes you have to do this to make a better connection.
6. Enjoy frosty beverage, all the while congratulating yourself on a successful, technically challenging MOD.

Yep it's easy, just use a flathead with a rag over it to pry the cover off without scratching anything, then pull the existing bulb out, replace, and pop the cover back in. Just like in the footwell lamps. What lights did you get? Superwhite LEDs?
Yup! from superbrightleds. Ive bought several bulbs from autolumination but wanted to give these guys a shot. Any bulbs you recmmend that would achieve that xenon look? (It will never end
)

I'm currently trying to look for some for my back-up lamp.. And if the HID fogs work out in the factory housing, I'll be trying to source a spare ballast/ignitor for an HID backup lamp.. hehe.. Your right, it will NEVER end..
What bulb do you want Xenon-look for? The interior lights look really good with superwhite LEDs.. just pure pure white and it looks amazing.. I've seen it in person before, no pics though

Unfortunately no.. I have some Blue LEDs from www.autolumination.com and they are really bright. When I order the Super White LEDs for my license plate and interior lights I'll be ordering from www.autolumination.com again...
