3rd Generation Replacing Dome Light

This bulb in my dome light went out a while ago and I decided it's time to replace it. Anyone know how I go about doing this and what size bulb I need?

i gotta pry off the clear cover using a flathead screw driver, but be careful not to damage the unit. just a little bit of force is enough. you can find the size of the bulb in your owner's manual. or if u go to the autoparts store, u can ask the clerk or if u go to walmart, there is a machine you can use to find out the size.

For the correct bulb for your dome light and other bulb applications for your car, you can use this online website:
