I used a rubber ring or a rubber affair you twist off jar lids. Easier and then pulling the console down.

Thank you for the answer. I actually tried nada ties, I saw someone suggested that, then I finally decided to employ some Gorilla record and that pulled them right out. I replaced the license plate lights too, just the dome light is a different kind of lite and then I'thousand going to have to get one of those.

But that console did not want to come loose.

You tin can see the difference between the LED and the stock incandescent.

I don't give up easy

I used it to pull out the license plate bulbs too, they were too a picayune hard to pull out.

There'southward a YouTube video somewhere of the overhead console removal. You start pulling from back to front end, there's a agglomeration of wire connectors up at that place.

I saw a couple of those, one of them was the same console I have and he popped it down. Simply mine was pulling the headliner and everything down, and the clips did not want to release, and I didn't want to pause annihilation.

The dome light is a festoon bulb and I ordered a couple of those in LED.

The overhead tin can come down in 2 ways, you can pull just the plack inner panel or the whole beige surrounding trim with the black inner panel.

I recommend watching A video earlier doing it the showtime time equally information technology will feel like you lot're going to break something (just you lot probably won't).

I agree the thing volition come out, I but didn't want to cease up having to spend another hundred bucks or more than to buy new console simply to replace the bulbs.

By the way another thing I tried was putting rut shrink tubing on the bulb while it was lit, then turning it off, and trying to pull information technology down. I think it would have worked, except that that I never allow it absurd down long plenty, so the tubing slipped off.
