I'm an idiot...please help me replace my interior and license plate bulbs w/ led's

What do I need to remove and with what tools.

I'm pretty sure I could do it...I just prefer not to break anything.

Any pics or instructions for the dome, map, and license plate bulb replacements would be great.

Thanks!

Here's a link to the thread that details this process. It's really very simple and very low cost. You only need a flat-head screwdriver to pry out the lenses. https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/fit-...6k-beware.html



Here's a link to RogersFit's page. He has made a handful of good guides for different common modifications. Fit Modifications

The license plate lights you need to push the bulb cover to the side [right] to remove it. The bulb socket is then removed by pinching it at the base. Then change the bulb and put it back together.

The lens covers of the others pry off w/ a small screw driver.

Go VERY easy on the license plate light covers. I've broken two so far--a massive PITA when the gaskets on them are never in stock.
