Default How to remove MAP light covers v.searchnotworking
Need to replace my bulbs with LEDs, can't figure out how to get the covers off without them almost bending to the point of breaking. Any help?

Screw driver and patience. Start from the inner part (side closest to console) of the lense.
BTW TORCHD 02 TA do you have pics of your leds yet?
