    Meso lights or just bulbs? Basically just pop the lens off and replace bulb. I know some LED are polarity sensitive, so if it doesn't work when you put it in, flip it around and try again. (Insert a "that's what she said" here)

    I ordered the LED map and dome lights from a guy on here but the dome was too blue and didnt match the maps. Went down to Autozone and the dome light they had matched perfectly. Super bright and actually white.

    I’ve had that happen. Before I knew what color temps to look for, anything over 6000k is too blue for me. 5500k is a good color

    Be careful of the overhead light. There are several sizes of bulbs and if you get one that's mm longer it's difficult to get in. Also make sure there's no power to the fixture when you do this installation. If you short one end of the bulb against the frame (easy to do) with the power on it can blow out the fixture. As me how I know.
