How To Remove Front Dome Light Cover
I know how to remove the rear dome light cover as there is a groove to put in a flat head screwdrive and pop out, but looking at the front there is no groove. It also looks like if I tried to put in a flathead screwdriver and pry, might damage the plastic. Do we have to take apart the whole housing to get to the front dome lights or carefully pry at different spots and if so, anyone do it to direct me to the right spots, I believe I see a couple of clips but want to double check here before I go prying.
Thanks in advance...

Bump, I have the same question =D I was planning to change the dome light to super white, but don't see an opening for the front.
Another question, is the front & rear dome light part # 3022? I don't see it in the owner's manual.

i dont think there is much sense in changing this stock item because for one you get two pretty white leds for like reading...games etc without catching attention by cops. also the stock amber lights are mor than sufficient on lighting up the entire car...just my 2 cents before you go messing around with your lights.

I don't plan on using dome lights when driving, I doubt I'd even use the LED lights when driving, no point...so there's no way to catch a cops attention...

if you do what i did, let me warn you before you do it. I changed my dome lights to LED refactor bulbs. LED bulbs do not dim in and out like normal incandescent bulbs so it will look really crappy when the lights fade in and out.

you have to take off the two screws in the sunglass holder and pop off the oposite side off ( has two white clips) and drop down the whole thing. there are three 194's wedge bulbs (same ones that are in the parking front parking lamps)that twist off from the back. led's do flicker when dimming out. hope this helps ......
