Starting small by putting in LED interior lights today. Got most in there except the front dome lights and the puddle lights. Can't seem to get the panel off on the front dome. Will try again tomorrow. Don't think my puddle lights even work. I've had the car for 6 months and never looked at them until today. I guess they are supposed to come on when you open the door?

 

Puddle lights shouldn't come on right when you open the door, but rather as you approach the vehicle. I'd watch out for the puddle light install. The mirror needs to snap back into place properly or else the reverse tilt feature will not work.

 

The puddle light install is a pain in the rear. If you're patient enough you can get to all the screws without removing the mirror and risking breaking it when clipping it back in, which is what I did, but I was ready to kick the mirrors off the side of the car by that point, haha. The upper console has two screws inside the sunglasses holder as I recall and the it slides back and down with a little force.

 

Verified my puddle lights actually work this morning. Really dim so I guess I never noticed them be there. I'm using this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZFtrx2RiaE as my guide to put in the LED's. Will be really careful when I get to the puddles. Still can't get my front overhead console off though to get to the front dome lights. Removed the two screws in the sunglass holder area. Maybe I need to use more force?

 

Yes a little force would help. There are 2 snap in screws on each corner of the front of the dome light that you need to pull down. Once they're out, you have room to access the bulbs....

 

When I installed the puddle lights I removed the mirror, it was scary but it made it a lot easier to access the bulbs. Make sure to put in quality led lights so you do not have to constantly change the puddle light. As for the overhead dome light, you remove the screws from the sunglass holder and find your way to the lights using force. Good luck!

Got the dome lights off after using some serious force! Led's inside look great!

 

"May the force be with you."
