Courtesy lights on doors.

Sweet, use the same method (plastic card) to take the foot light covers off or you can drop the cover underneath the glove compartment to expose the bulb from above on the passenger side. I couldn't figure out how to do it on the driver side. Have needle nose pliers handy to pull the bulb and some Tylenol for the pain after contorting your body a while to get to them
Parking light is a matter of reaching behind the headlight and twisting the back off. I went with nice LED bulbs. It looks so much better.
I don't think you're done yet There's the vanity lights, puddle lamps, reverse lights, DRLs, fog lights and amber blinker bulbs. Go with the chrome covered amber blinker bulbs. Did you change the rear dome light? I used a thin metal tool similar to a spackle to remove that cover. It's a major PITA for a lousy single bulb

If you find the right improvised tool you can get to the rear dome cover off. I couldn't figure out how to remove the whole thing but I think the bulb is enclosed anyway. I had an installer put in ballasts for the fogs. They're 6K, nice and bright. I might swap them out with the 5K bulbs I bought last year or maybe switch over to LED instead. I can see the cut off with the HIDs. Oh well, it's all about getting rid of the yellowness.

I was able to remove the rear dome light cover with a thin flat head screwdriver.
As soon as I was able to get my fingers into the housing, you then have to carefully pop the tabs and the entire cover comes off. I am running LED panels for the interior and they are super bright.
I still gotta do the front footwell lights and the puddle lamps on the exterior mirrors.
I have to be super patient with the exterior mirrors (crack open the mirror cover, etc).

The mirror itself is not hard to remove at all. Getting the inner part can be difficult after removing the screws behind the mirror. And the noise sounds horrible, like it's breaking. But no harm, no foul. Shouldn't take more than 15 minutes.

MEP, I though you already have blue puddle light. You reached the limit.
