Default Cubby Hole Light??

Okay i have done my research and know that i need a #74 LED to replace that ugly cubby hole light, BUT i dont want to buy it online. Does anyone know a good place to buy LEDS...like an auto parts store or a home depot...im not sure if they carry them but i figured someone would know. i want to do it this weekend and i dont feel like waiting for a delivery before i do it!!

I put one of those lil rubber bulb covers over it work pretty good, a lil work and it will stay in place.... now my cubby hole is crimson like the rest of my inside lights.. those lil rubbers can be found just about any auto store in the bulb section or the mods section

I never noticed how bright that little cubby is. Doesn't bother me though.

i tried doing it with the needle nose pliers but that wasn't happening. The easiest way to do it is to pull of the shifter panel then the AC panel. Once you got them off reach behind the cubby and pull out the light fixture. Once you have it out, it's easy to replace.

Nope.. there is an easier way...

if you have small hands, you can stick your hand in the small hole from the passenger side and you can find the bulb and just pull it out.. then just replace the bulb and put it back inside
