I really hate the amber bulbs so I decide to change them to LED bulbs. But now I don't know how to change the dome light, trunk light, and even license plate light. (I read the manual but still can't figure it out) And since it is a new car so there is no video showing how-to on Youtube. Has anyone done this yet? I don't want to break anything :crying::crying:

I've changed out every bulb in the whole car already...

The dome light and the map light are pretty easy .... you just need a jeweler's flat head screwdriver to fit between the lens and the grey plastic and pry at the mount points gently.

The license plate bulbs were a little tricky they have a tab / slot that pops out. AND the bulb housings are pretty small my 12 LED bulbs wouldn't fit had to swap to 6 LEDs

If you want some pictures I can take some tomorrow.

Picture will be very helpful. The dome light I just don't know if I should pull or push into on the mount points. For the license plate one I should pop out the plastic stuff and pull it out?

Just a reminder, led bulbs are one way positioned bulb, so if your bulb doesn't turn on, flip it around...

Where did you find LED bulbs?

Yea I know that, but the thing is like I don't know how to take those plastic panel off lol

Where did you find LED bulbs?

Local auto parts store or you can try on eBay

Are they specific to the iM or generic? I can't find anything made _for_ the iM.

They are going to be generic, you have to find out the bulb type you need and get that. Only time you're going to see something iM specific is if it's a kit that someone has put together containing specific bulbs you need, uncommon.

Anyone mind posting a link for the LED bulbs if they're available on Ebay or Amazon?

Thanks in advance!

Finally figured out how to pull out the license plate light frame as well as trunk light.

 

[MitchellIannatto]

Perhaps I missed this, but what size are the headlights? There has got to be a better deal than $130 for HID's
