i don't think the link is workin..but if u mean the dome lights front/rear its really easy..the rear there is a slit, just stick a flathead in and wahlahhh. the front is easy just read carefully. open the sunglass compartment and in the top up in there unclip the (2) little plastic fasteners (thats only thing i can think of calling them..) use a screwdriver to remove the screws obviously. when the screws are out the whole piece will feel loose, it's normal..now try to get a couple fingers inside the loose end and slide them forward toward you (toward the rear of the car)..when you reach closest to you just pull down, just give it a quick budge, the clips will slide out and your good, when placing the piece back in, put the side closest to the windshield in first, then push up the rear end and listen to the clips to pop..then screw. vanity mirror lights are cake also..just stick a flat-head in the left side n make it so it pushed down and it will unclip..let me know of any other interior lighting..ive done a bunch of things.

Maybe try calling some SoCal shops then if you don't get a response here. If a shop can do it for other cars, I'm sure they can do it for the 2IS. Good luck in your search though.
