VERY EASY.

Insert a scre driver up between the front of the lens (the side closest to you where you normally push up to click the light on and off) and the lens will bend a little and you will expose a clear plastic latch. Them simply pull down on the front portion of the lens that is closest to the windshield. There is a small plastic hinge part that snaps off on both sides.

This took me like 2 minutes total, if you don't want to do it, I am sure a dealer will but probably charge you for it!

The rears are easy same thing jam a screwdriver up there and wedge the lens out!

YES.

The bulb actually looks and fits like a fuse.

You used the multi-angle 194 replacement for the passenger domes? I would have thought the "straight ahead" version would give a better spotlight effect without distracting the driver at night.

BTW, the best led dome light I've seen used a combination of blue and amber to give a color very close to a regular incandescent bulb. It was in a Lincoln.

NO, the 194 will not fit the overhead lights...

The light that goes there is the #578 bulb. It looks like a glass fuse used in car audio installs for power wire.

We shall all find out soon enough. I honestly doubt there would be so many sites and so many people buying them if they stopped working. I dont think these will get enough use to wear out quickly. I will let you know if I have any issues!

Lennoxavesosa:
this is what i ordered today...may not be "cheapest", but cheapest compared to most expensive for these lights isn't gonna be that dramatic.

-Front Over Head Lights (Dome Lights)--just order 1Qty (comes in pairs)
$21.90 (shipping included) from [url]www.eautoworks.com/html/ORD-1-1-1-22502.cfm

-Rear Over Head Lights (OH "Darn" Handle Lights)--order 2Qty (only 1 bulb)
$14.00 (shipping not included) from www.autolumination.com/194.htm

-Front Bottom Door Lights / Trunk Light -- order 2Qty (only 1 bulb)
$16.00 for 2 (shipping not included) from www.autolumination.com/194.htm
On top of page click link for Festoon Dome Bulbs...scroll to:
44mm=1-3/4" Long 9LED (that's the bulb that fits)

As for as the Liscence Plate Light...i have NO IDEA! Hope this helps.
Matt
