Question How do I remove the dome light cover? Need help from the veterans.

I bought some bulbs and wanted to replace the dome light. I didn't want to force it and break anything before I checked with the experts.
Can anyone assist on this one and also tell me how to get the door light and reading lights off?

there should be two very small slits on the backside, towards the rear window, just put a thin flat head screwdriver in between and pry slowly, do the same for both slits and it will pop right off...

Yep! Especially the map light and dome. Go slowly and use a flat tip screwdriver with the tip wrapped in duct or electrical tape to limit damage.
The door courtesy light covers come of just using your fingers. Squeeze the tab and pull it out.
