Glove box light not working!

Anyone know how to get to this light? I would rather get to it myself and change it (maybe to a LED), than have some guy at the delarship #$@& up my interior and paint job! I am changing the other bulbs to LEDs.

To access that bulb you need to pull the glove box out. The area where it hinges pulls up and unsnaps. Remove the glove box.
- Pull off the side dressing that is between the door and the dash.
- Then there is a panel under the dash that you pull down from the front and after 3 clips are off pull towards you.
- Then there are 7-8 screws that hold glove box carcass in. Remove those screws. Pull out the carcass and the light is on top of the carcass.

I am doing this from memory but that is pretty much it.

Thanks Dieseldoug,

I have the shop manual, so I will attempt this over the weekend. Did you go to a LED bulb? Do you know what type will replace the original?

That one I didn't change. I never look in there so I didn't find it necessary. If you can find it someone had posted what bulbs go where in the car.
