pry with a plastic putty knife, screwdrivers leave gouges, i know this personally
most bulbs are 194, there are like 4 BA9 bulbs for the maps on the front and above the rear doors, i recco a pair of pliers and to close the door when taking them out since the bulbs get hot QUICK.

I recommend wrapping the pliers in electric tape too. protect the bulb.

I use a mini screwdriver from snap on and pop off one side at a time as every side has 2 clips and it is a pain to get off.
I replaced all my interior lights with LED's All the bulbs are 194 except the key cylinder and foot well uses a small little bulb , i replaced mine with a varad interior led by wiring it directly . I also use 2 led dome lights tystrapped together to double the output as i had a 9 led festoon bulb but it was from hong Kong and kept having bulbs dieing. So i used the 2 together with one in the clips and the other one pressed against the contacts to light it as well.
I made a thread a while ago with pics.

Thanks for the replies. I havent bought them yet because this is KEntucky and finding a parts store that sells anything besides OEM and absolutally rediculous to find, and when you do find it...it's costly. Autozone carries 2 194 bulbs that are blue for $15 each. Thats about $75 in just THOSE bulbs... it would cost near $150 bucks to replace all the lights in the ride...is it worth it?
Anyone have ideas besides ebay...or ebay luck?

There is 6 194 for the rear map reading lights.
I agree with a neon as the bulb is badly positioned and cannot be seen. I would mount a neon under teh trunk lid so it shines down as anything high in the trunk in the stock position gets blocked easily..
