Replacing interior lights

Hi all can some one tell me how to disassemble the interior lights to install the new led lights I purchased? It's probably easy to do the door lights, map lights and such but I don't want to break anything.

Thanks!

i did it on mine and all i did is to pry the plastic glass with a knife for the front map lights and the rear light. for the front door light you have to take out the whole thing, takes 5min. you can read it in the owner manual

Hey how hard was the installation? Is there any rewiring needed or splicing? Ohh and when you say map light you mean the driver/passenger twin light or the one in the center?

theres a detailed diagram in the manual, all the way in the back.... you have to take a flathead screw driver, cover it with a cloth or something, and pry the dome light cover off. you have to make sure that you do NOT let the screw driver dent the plastic around where its making contact, so i would push the screw driver in away from the edges as i am doing this.
