How to Remove Interior Dome Lights?
I'm looking to swap the interior, overhead lights to LED bulbs and I'm wondering how to safely get the old ones out without breaking anything. I gently tried prying the overhead panel but there was no movement. I don't know if the clear part is removable or if I have to remove the entire panel.
Any help appreciated.

As expensive as this car is, we gotta start seeing more vids and methods on how to replace parts after removal. I hope more members make vids or post instructions. I will be soon removing some parts so I hope to contribute....

After very careful prying and prodding, I found where the tabs are to release the dome light panel. They're towards the rear (facing the back of the car) in each corner of the panel. This will lower the panel and give access to the bulbs. You don't pry the clear light covers but instead the entire back half of the panel.
I swapped the 2 dome lights and footwell lights to LED.
