Can someone show me how to take the bulb out on the map light on a 2010? I am able to take the plastic cover out and see the bulb but have no idea how to take the bulb out.

Also is aftermarket LED 194 bulb bigger(size) then OEM 194 bulb?

 

If it was anything like my 2005, you twist and it will come out. I think it was a BA15S bulb if I recall.

And yes, generally speaking the LED 194 replacements that have smaller SMD LED's on them are larger in size than incandescent.

 

I was able to twist the bulb and made it loose but unable to get it out it looks like the base of the bulb is round won't come off that metal bracket.

I also have trouble to get access to the rear center light. I am able to pop whole light out but not able to get access to the bulb. Can't seem to figure out how to take the light cover out.

 

anyone did a full swap to all LED bulbs? including the outside side mirrors?

i think sick350 has replaced every bulb in the car

 

I did it and that cost me a lot because I ****ed up the right mirror glass.

 

That is what I want to avoid.
It seems like the all the led bulb I see are bigger then the halogen bulb. For example the bottom light the doors, once I put the led bulb in I cannot closed the inside cover since the bulb is too long.
Which brand do you guys to use ?

 

I was able to figure out how to change the map light bulb by dropping off that whole panel and not just the light cover.
I was able to find slim led bulb from another brand as well.

Anyone have instruction to change the bulb for the two side mirrors?
