how to install led dome lights 8g

[joegalant]

1. remove dome light housing just use a credit card from behind it will pop right out.



2. depress plug and remove housing



3. cut off connector piece coming off led bored (none of the adapters will work on the 8g housing because of the odd bulb)





4. remove old bulb, remove lens (carefully push down tab and push out then pop it completely out by pushing out the hinge side). remove 3m tape from led board and stick it on the housing



5. solder the wires to the tabs the bulbs used to connect to ( i didnt use the tab that goes inside i just soldered it above the tab)



6. repeat 1 though 5 on 2nd light and re assemble.





led boards=$13.48
solder and soldering iron=$15.19
total project cost= $28.67

total time about 30 min
