Replace Overhead Console Bulbs

I need instructions on how to replace Overhead Console Bulbs. The bulb that went out is the one in the middle that is used for homelink and controls the garage opener. I would like to replace them all I manage to take the unit apart.

you mean the soldered LEDs?

if they are soldered onto a main board, you'll have to de-solder and solder some new LEDs on

Thank you for the reply. I saw the DIY video on how to de-solder and solder some new LEDs on.......I'm not going down that road.
I just ordered me a used Overhead Console from Ebay for about $21.00. I will either replace the whole unit or replace the mainboard. Whatever is easier.
