Default Changing interior "Personal Lights"

The lights near the moon roof switch went out. I have the replacement bulbs already, but don't know how to take that the cover off.

I've searched the forum, as well as the owner's manual. Only info other than the bulb size that I found was that they are called "Personal Lights"

im guessing your talking about the map light?
the cover pops off..its kinda hard to get it off of there so stick a flat head screw driver and just pull..dont have to worry about breaking it, its pretty strong

Search "map light" over on my.is there is a tutorial with pictures to help put.
You pretty much have to stick a butter knife under the front edge and carefully undo the tabs at each end. The entire panel comes off not just the clear lense
