Dome light problems, burned out?? Accessing the bulb help!

My dome light on my 2003TL-S has stopped working. I assume the bulb is burned out. Does anyone know the trick of accessing the bulb.

Prying the bezel doesn't seem to release it. Please share the trick to replace this bulb.

TIA,

Jerry

Thanks but the owners manual only tells you how to operate the light not how to replace it.

It's an annoying little problem and I don't want to crack the bezel.

u stick a small flat screwdriver in one of the sides and pry it carefully and slowly. it will come out and then pull the bulb out.

Thanks, it was easy. I was trying to pull the outside bezel down and didn't realize that the lens was the part that had to come down.

It's amazing how hard some things are until someone takes the time to tell you how to do it easily.

Merry Xmas!
