Default Dome Lights - 2016 GS F Sport

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone has had luck popping out the interior dome lens cover so I can switch the bulbs?...I'm reluctant to put too much pressure that might break something...I was able to successfully switch my vanity lights, but not so much on the front dome lights and the back dome lights...help???

I thought our dome and rear dome lights are LED already. Are you looking to use a different color?

No...I believe we have what is called the soft white bulbs... I changed the vanity lights(they're like the blue led look) very nice...but for the life of me I can't open the covers to the dome lights without feeling like I'm going to break something.

The '13's are LED. I'd be surprised if they went back to regular bulbs?

I haven't had time to look to see if our lights are similar to the IS, but maybe this video can answer your question.

Good luck and let us know how it goes!

I posted the same thread months ago! LOL
The middle of the front and back dome lights are bulbs cuz I can see the soft yellow hue, but the side lights are LED. I tried to pop off the dome lights but they are impossible to pry off! My fingers were getting sore from the hard edge plastics. I think someone said there inserted and you need to pop them off! Wish they were more accessible cuz they are too dim for my liking! Plus, this is GS 2016 that we are talking bout so its a little different from other models and years. Thanks
