How to Change The LightBulb in Driver Side Door.

I feel like a looser posting this question.

My light bulb on the driver side door key is blown.

Is there a set of instructions how I can change that bulb?

Thanks.

There's a black plastic cover on the other side of the door handle assembly. Remove that. Unbolt the 2 10mm bolts behind the cover and your door handle assembly will come loose from the front side. Follow the wire thats on top (i think) of the keyhole and pull the light out. replace and reinstall.

Did you do a search on this topic? It was just disscused only a month ago by me and a few other members!

Also if you solder the wires of the new bulb to the factory ones, make sure you disconect your CPU2, or it will blow from the current of the solder iron.

Would it be better if I just used electric tape?
