    Replacing map light. This came off with blown out bulb. Tried to put it on with the new bulb hoping it would make contact and light up, it didn't work. I even pulled away the metal reflective lens to see if I could solder it, it is too tight of a space.

    Any other options? Do I need to buy a new overhead console or can I just replace the bulb socket?

    It appears I can replace just the dome lights via pics I have seen. Looks like a few Phillips head screws hold it in place. Searching for that part # all over this interwebs.

    What is the part # just for that piece?? None of the diagrams I find show that piece

    Can I just order this part circled in red? All the overhead console diagrams do not show this part #

    Also the piece that fell off came from right where the arrow is pointing.

    Maybe it's time to upgrade to a compass temp overhead console?? This sucks, a $1.49 bulb turns into a $100+ problem
