I just received my LEDs in the mail yesterday and I started to put them in this afternoon, so far so good, forgot to buy a Festoon bulb for my dome light. I got to my map lights and I basically just got stunned. Just a few minutes ago I tried searching for threads about how to change them, and whether I wasnt looking hard enough or no one really explained on how to change it. So if anyone could help me out that would be great =]
if possible, pictures would be awesome, thanks!

Take a flat head screw driver and place it between the light assembly and overhead fabric towards the front of the car.
Carefully pry off until you have enough room to get your fingers inside to pull it off.
Pull it off in a downward motion toward you.
Unplug it.
Use the same flat head, or something even more skinny if you have it, (tweezers will work too) to pry off the plastic clear covers that go over each light bulb.
You can now take out the light and replace it with the LED.
Plug it back in.
Turn on the switch to make sure the lights work.
If not, take out the LED, and reverse it because they are polarized.
Switch it back on.
Once satisfied, place light assembly back in its place.
Congratulations, now you have LED map lights that look tits.

gotta love LED's... I left my map light on because I was testing my HVAC swap and I left it on all night... when I came into the car this morning, the light was still on and the car started up fine... LED's draw so little power... good for the battery.. hehehe
