Default Changing interior bulbs

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I'd like to change the bulbs in the doors and the three in the cargo/hatch area. Does anyone know how to gain access to the bulbs?

Thanks in advance.

Using a small screwdriver just slide it in on the right side of the lens and gently pry the unit out. It should come out easy, so if its not try the other side. Once the light unit is out there is a cover that is just snapped on. For the lights in the back to get the LED bulbs to fit right, you might need to bend the metal clip holding the bulb.

Wait Make sure you look closely they made slates to fit in the - type head without scuffing the plastic to get the cover out. They have it on the dome lights and I think the one in the cargo.

I didn't see the holes and starting prying all over that area and now their welches. lol.
