Bulb Replacement in the rear view mirror (map lights) Can anyone tell me how to get to the bulbs in the rear view mirror (MAP LIGHTS). So I can replace them with new LED bulbs. I fooled with it for an hour and still can't get it apart. Any help would be greatly appreciated..
Thanks have a great weekend and God Bless Our Troops and the U.S.,

You have to pull the plastic lens out a end at a time, but it can get tricky since there are little tabs built into the plastic lens. You dont want to snap them off.
If I remember right I used a real small flat head screwdriver, small enought to get under the lens and slowly get it out.

Where did you get the LED bulbs?
LS1MONSTER,
I purchased a complete set of doors, instrument panel, HVAC, rear dome & the front map lights. From LS1 SS, http://www.ledgauges.com/ He is a sponsor on this web site. And They look great or should I say badass!! Nathan is also a great guy to deal with. I'm going to do my stereo and steering column controls this fall.

They dont have leds for the tube-ish one for the dome..
Where could i get that?
Dimitri-,
LS1_SS carries them, that is what I put in my maps and rear dome light. They have 8 LEDs in them inside a glass tube, fits right in (Plug and Play)
Get in touch with Nathan, he will hook you up.

Brain, I would get a hold of Nathan (LS1_SS). I bought it as a kit and no numbers. Nathan is a sponsor in this site. And like I said before he is a great guy to deal with. And the Map lights look BADASS!! Also matches my C2 AutoMeter Gauges Perfectly.
