Pry the covers off and take the bulb out.

The cover are just snapped in, use a small screwdriver.

so i received my bulbs but dont work. Based on the Sylvania website map lights should be De3175 but when I took the a look in the car, it uses a regular little bulb. How can that be and what kind is it?

Are you serious...you read the godd dam manual or one of the thousands of DIY threads about it. Takes 30 seconds, but since you bought the wrong bulbs it'll take you a little longer

very helpful post there ^^.

If you look at the silvania website it specifies the bulbs I bought instead of the correct ones.

funny how everyone is bad a$$ on the internet. What a joke.
