How to change map light bulbs in overhead console
My '96 suburban has the overhead console with the small round map lights. I want to clean the dirty lenses and replace the bulbs with high intensity LED bulbs. How do I get to them?
I found that they come out by pushing in on the lens and turning. There is a pattern for a Torx driver molded into the face of the plastic. Then a small screwdriver is needed to remove the bulb from the bulb housing / lens assembly.
Hi Folks, same problem with small round map lights. Just tried gently using screwdriver but no go. Please advise on correct tool to remove round lens on map light. Plan to clean and replace bulbs. Thanks, Steve
I just pushed and turned gently with my thumbnail (only turns one way )and it popped out. Haven't tried to remove bulbs yet, was killing time waiting on the wife, shopping.
