In fact, I reckon just about any auto store would stock 'em, they're very popular. Instructions on how to replace the globes are in your vehicle handbook, although I don't think it tells you to take out the airbox and battery to do the job!

You'll spend bloody hours trying to remove/install them if you leave the stuff in, trust me!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just practice I guess. And maybe a knack with getting my fat little fingers into tight spaces PS. The real trick is to use your fingers on one side of the plug (outside) while using a small screwdriver on the other side to compress the release tabs.PPS. And then if you "butcher" the lock tabs inside the connector the next time you have to do the job the connector will simply pull straight off just like in the good ol' days.
