Default How do I remove ignition ring to replace bulb

I searched but could not find. I am wanting to do the mod to LED.

On a side note, I purchased the LED's from superbightleds.com, BA-9's I think to change my dome lights to LED and they melted on me. I lefted it on while I was replacing the other bulbs.

Is this supposed to happen??

No prob.
I have polargs and LED's so it doesn't match as nice. I ran into a problem with the glovebox, it has no light.

Tried looking for the fuse under the steering and hood but couldn't find it.
Anyone know where it is. I'm so lame when it comes to electricity.

It has a light just make sure you turn the headlight stalk one click to turn it on.

Did u turn the LED bulb to the other side? If they don't light up, try taking it out and reversing it.

I did this mod last night. Nice, easy mod. The LEDs don't fit very well and you have to force them.
