Interior Door Release Handle Illumination Question

I removed all four door panels yesterday to refoam my speakers only to find they're all OK. Guess whatever noise I hear is just the bass rattling some 10 year old parts, not bad just noticeable because the car is so damn quiet.

Anyway.....I got everything back together and noticed that my front passenger interior door release cove is no longer illuminated. Taking the panel off again is a piece of cake, I'll have to see if I pinched or possibly broke a wire.

Anyone replaced one of these bulbs? I've gone ALL through the Sewell diagrams and found squat!

Any help or advice is certainly appreciated!

Ive replaced the LEDs with white ones. Its pretty simple to remove if you have the panels off.

Just a 3mm led . Just have to solder it in after you take the old one out. Once you look at it, you will umderstand what i mean.

Well I figured it out. Didn't have the snap-off cover all the way in and it was blocking the light.

Feel like a dumass!
