Dome light swap?

Hola y'all

Lookiong to replace the fugly yellow dome lights with some other ones, probably from VLEDS. Does anyone know if its just as easy to remove the covers from each side as popping them out with a screw driver? Also what bulbs do they take?

Total G35 NEWB here if you can't tell

It's very easy to remove the cover. Just pop it off with a flathead. Don't be scared to use a bit of muscle, although you shouldn't have to. Forgot what bulbs they take, but I replaced mine with PIAA LED's, makes a huge difference looks wise.

Do you have any PIAA's to compare with? Maybe take pics with them side by side.

When I asked for what kind of dome light, I meant what size!
As in what lights on V-led.com fit!
