I want to replace the twin map lights with LEDs. Does anyone have a technique to access these lights that doesn't require removal of the fricken headliner or cutting a hole in the top of the car? The OEM lights are so damn dim that they're next to useless. Just curious, but it would be nice to have useable lights up there.

I would not naturally assume LED will be brighter. Not sure it's worth all the trouble. Get a good flashlight such as a Coast. I've read where on some applications an LED bulb was used in place of the stock Halogen bulb the results and issues w/these LED bulbs was just not worth it. Just took a look at my 2017 owner's manual...the map lights are LED.

Thank, Sparky. These are the dimmest LED's I've ever seen. I replaced the dome light with an LED and that is great! Lots of light now. I guess I'll just let these alone - for now.
