Below is a brief "how to" for replacing the map lights with LED smd's.
Hopefully this will help people and show how easy this replacement is.
As usual remember the polarity of the connection has to be correct or the LED's won't work.
I also wanted to to increase the brightness as much as possible so I replaced the wedge bulbs with flat multiple LED's.
The map light pops off with the aid of a plastic spatula.
The hardest part is removing the wedge bulb.
A 9 led smd fits nicely inside the lens housing.
