    Got all my interior lights switched over to LED, but I cant seem to pry the dome cover off-- I'm using a curved plastic tool, but can't seem to get it-- i can pry what looks like the whole assembly instead of just the cover but it's hard to tell-- i've seen people do it with a forked plastic tool, not sure if i need that-any tips for this light?

    You have to take the whole assembly down. Held in by 4 clips. I push the headliner up with my fingers and give it a good yank. Start with the rear(furthest from the windshield). You have to pull hard

    It’s probably the same as my 2019, to remove the dome lens look at the long side facing the front of the truck, you can see two small indents, place your small plastic tool at one of them between the housing edge and the lens and pop it down, repeat for the other indent and slide the lens right out toward you. I used a flat straight plastic trim tool but even a small flat blade screwdriver would work. Easy.
