thanks guys!!!
ok... since there's another thread asking about the puddles lights in the bottom of the side mirrors, i decided to make a quick DIY on this... specially since i had some LED's lying around. i completely forgot to take pics of the actually LED's i used...
anyway... so i moved both mirrors so they're facing all the way up... top all the way back and bottom all the way out... then i used my hands...no tools... to pry the corners closest to the doors...

then take out the 4 screws:
after you take out the 4 screws, the 2 housings will peel away from each other...
there's 3 tabs... one on the bottom and two on the sides closest to the car...then you'll see this:
take out the bulb from the housing and replace:
here's the units i replaced those with... (got them off amazon and the title was: 194 168 T10 Wedege SMD High Power LED HYPER WHITE BULBS Dome Lights 12V)
here's the finished result:
