Gen5 Gear Shifter Bulb *PICS!!*

I popped open the panels and accessed the gear shifter bulb (changing it to a red LED), but I'm having a hard time getting the bulb out. I can't guy get my fingers around it... is there another way?

Glaring blue HID bulbs are NOT classy, and don't make your car look nice, no matter what that kid in the Civic told you.

I used a #74 single LED... but I'm probably going to change it to a red #24 incandescent... because the LED isn't as bright as I want it to be... and the #24 bulb has the same size wedge, just a bigger overall bulb, and also, the incandescent has a better spread.

Ok, I installed the red #24 incandescent and am going to take pictures of it when it gets dark. I'll try and post them up later tonight.
