Default How do you change the bulbs in the rear dome light?

My bulbs are dead, i dont want to break anything so does anyone have any insight? Im talking about the ones that are in the back...actually i guess its more in the middle. My car doesnt have two sets of lights on the headliner - just one right in the middle of the roof, its a 2005 if that helps.

If anyone knows how many bulbs and what sizes it takes as well, that would also save me some trouble

thanks in advance

Have you checked to see first if the switch is in the right spot? To change the bulb just pop off the lens and change the bulb. Nothing special...

Dome lights are almost always a Festoon style bulb

Stick your finger in the opening for the switch and pull, the clips will come out and it'll pop off.

And after you get that lens off, install an Oznium led light. You won't regret it.
