Okay, for the life of me I can not figure this one out. And I'm sure it's so simple, but I don't want to go breaking anything.

I bought LEDs for the interior lights, 2 for the floor and a dome light. I can not get the Dome cover off at all, and I have no idea how to take the 2 floor lights (under the dash) out of their socket. I twist and pull but it doesn't budge.

Makes me feel a little stupid about the whole procedure lol

 

The bottom ones should just pull right out, might take some force. The dome is alot harder. Sometimes you have to go in from the top of the headliner and press down on it.

 

that's the thing, I was pulling on them as hard as i could, to the point that the whole object was moving, and i didn't like that.

 

I cant think of why they would be wedged in so much. Mine were burnt out and i didnt like the look of lights down there, so I just left it dark.

 

Okay, i got those floor bulbs out. You were right, just yank hard and wiggle lol.

Now about this dome light... I'm really struggling on this one. Anybody have any tips? I feel i'm pulling my whole headliner off and it's not budging

 

i thought the dome light covers just pop right off, try using a flathead on it

 

Okay. When trying to pry the dome light off, should I force thescrewdriver around the dark plastic part or the clear? I wish I could just see what it looked like off so I could determine how it is actually on there and have it make sense to me. Instead of just yanking on stuff.

 

Hope this helps......

bow tie hit the nail on the head with that design, but to answer your question before you force the screwdriver around the clear part. just follow the diagram and to change the bulb it should be very straight forward i believe that the diagram shows something about wiring, i didnt have to deal with any wiring when changing the dome light.

 

and btw bowtie that is one good looking monte and it must flyyyy with that exhaust and intake awesommee
