Re: Dome Light

Take a flat blade screw driver and insert it along one of the log sides (upper or lower) of the lens, between the lens and the housing and carefully pop it off. Then there are some screws under the lamp. Remove the lamp and unscrew it.

Re: Dome Light

What are your dome light issues? I just spent the last couple of hours getting mine to work.

Re: Dome Light

YES, especially when you have the light switch out of the dash and hanging below, NO GROUND.

I had to change the bulb, reconnect the wires coming out of the bottom of the fuse box, then figure out the whole ground thing......
