2007 w211 map lights

Does anyone happen to know how to replace the bulbs on the light under the rear view. I've searched the forum but only found the how-to for removal of the dome light unit.

I was wondering the same I tried to do it once but it's really hard to get a grip on the bulbs... I was thinking you probably have to take out the chrome shield portion to be able to pull the bulb or you would need some special tool to grip the bulb

The covers are super easy to pull

on the outer part of the lens there is a tab use your finger nail or a flat head (small one) push the tab towards the center of the mirror and they pull down...

Lmk if you don't figure it out I'll post pics if need be

Hi, how do you remove the bulb? It's kinda difficult to get a good grip.
