Pinch and pull

welcome to the Club Give a check into our DIY thread, I believe there are a few write ups on not just the how, but the right bulbs/

The door ones you can use a flat head and pluck the lens out from the top or bottom and expose the bulb. The map light has a slight indention on the side pointing towards the rear, you can slip a small falthead in there as well and pluck the lens out to expose those bulbs

46k!!! Dayum, I though I found a diamond in the rough when I got my 01 with 87k lol. Congrats on the new purchase! Welcome to the club. And Jokester pointed you in the right direction. Its all very easy. I'd recommend DDM Tuning for all your LEDs...very competitively priced! That's where I got mine =)

You should see our member with 300k (probably more now) His GS is in pristine condition, looks like it came off the show room floor! I find that more impressive than getting one with low miles and in mint condition I love how some people just take care of their shiits
