Part: Interior lights ceiling light bulb
Operation: Interior lights replacement with led bulbs

Start with the bulbs of the front ceiling light: with a plastic one for body builders, unhook the ceiling light, first the part with the buttons and then the part with the lamp holders; disconnect the latter from the socket in order to extract the bulbs to be replaced with the led ones: remember to respect the polarity of the led bulb (if it does not turn on, exchange the polarity by turning the bulb 180Â °). Proceed in the same way to install the LED bulbs on the rear ceiling light. Proceed with the footwell lighting: unhook the bulb holder, remove the reflective screen and replace the torpedo bulb with the LED one, always remembering the polarity issue. The operation is the same for the courtesy lights in the doors: however, the bulbs are of the T5 type and not torpedo. Complete the operation by replacing the license plate lights: unclip the bulb holders and replace the torpedo bulbs.
