RE: dome/overhead light - 5/4/2008 9:46:52 AM    94camguy Posts: 194 Joined: 2/12/2008 Status: offline Insert the tip of a small screwdriver into the indentation in the lens on the passenger side of the dome light and carefully pry the lens open. When the lens has bee removed, you can easiily see the bulb, which is a cylinder with pointed metal end. Use a NON CONDUCTIVE tool to pry one end of the bulb out of its socket. I used a wooden chopstick. Warning: The bulb will pop out of the socket and probably land on the floor under the seat. Push the replacement bulb into place and pop the lens back into position. (thats what I found, hope it helps!) _____________________________ (in reply to Octapulse) Post #: 2

I cant wait till that bulb shows up in the mail. I just finished installing my red vinyl dash kit yesterday (that was a pain in the ass). But I still need to do the guage cover (inside the instrument panel). I tried to remove the screws under the topside of the housing but they wouldnt budge. _____________________________ Why rule the world with an iron fist, when you could rule it with a led foot?

I was worried about them either ripping or having a bubble when I layed them down so I didnt even get them yet. Was it an easy applocation or did it take time and patience? _____________________________ (in reply to Octapulse) Post #: 8

RE: dome/overhead light - 5/7/2008 10:46:56 AM    Octapulse   Posts: 153 Joined: 4/20/2008 Status: offline it was a royal pain in the ass! I had to remove and re-apply alot of them several times. Also, alot of the pieces were a little bit longer than they should be, so I had to cut them and overlay them so they fit correctly. I managed to get them on without any bubbles, but there are some parts were the vinyl is pinched together. _____________________________ Why rule the world with an iron fist, when you could rule it with a led foot?

I also put in some red and black seat covers with red dragons on them, but I found some nicer ones online so i will replace them when I get them (also with the matching floormats and steering wheel cover) _____________________________ Why rule the world with an iron fist, when you could rule it with a led foot?
