^ One side pops out. Gently pull with your fingernails on one end, and switch sides if it doesn't pop off easily.

what about the paddle lights and your bulb conversion on your front end? i really like what you did with the fog lights. can you explain what those are and how you wired them?

^ Information on puddles and parking lights is in the first post. The LED strip near my fog lights is controlled by a wireless key fob.

The push button door lock on the outside of the door doesnt work until I allow the interior led's to go out. Has anyone else had this problem and if so how is it corrected?

Never heard of this problem... Did you leave any slots unfilled? Someone PMed me about his car going crazy because he only put one instead of two rear dome lights in.

Has anyone with a 2011 used this replacement guide? I've noticed there are some lighting changes for the 2011, looks like two front dome lights, not three. I know the fogs changed to H11, so it makes me wonder what other changes were made before I drop $120 on LEDs. The Sylvania website only has 2010, and they list the old 9006 fogs, so I know it's not updated.

^ I'm almost positive the only change was from 3 to 2 front dome slots for 2011.

Thanks, went ahead and pulled the trigger on a full set-up including reverse lights, all 6K. Noticed it was 15% off for signing up for their newsletter, wootwoot.
