    I'm not trying to be a smart ass, it just comes natural whenever I talk.
    The Dome Light:
    I really think all you need is a small standard screw driver and just pry it open. The plastic piece should just come right off. From there you should be able to pop out the bulb and replace it.

    I've not had the pleasure of having to try and remove the dome lights yet, so till then this is all I have for you. Good luck brother!

      Its not that hard truthfully. Just get a flathead screwdriver and pop it out. Its supported by a single tab at the round end and two smaller tabs at the straight end. The map lights are easier to take out since you can just hold the button down and pop it out of the gap that opens when you hold the button.

        Which button are you referring to? The actual clear light cover with the indent? Do they pop out just like the dome lights?

          I just did this to clean up there. Take a small flathead or I used my knife and pry the 2 tabs facing the rear of the car. Once those come undone, you can just lower it down, but if you have a sunroof like I do, you need to unhook the switch and then pull it down.

            Are you referring to the dome light or the map light? The dome is easy to get off I was asking how to change the map bulbs?
