Does anybody have the manual with them right now?I'm wanting to order red lightbulbs for the interior. I cut up a red seethru file folder and put it in the light consoles. Looks pretty good. I'm going to order red bulbs.Problem is that i don't know the type of bulbs, and my wife stole the Vibe today..Thanks,Magnus

I think there is a section on replacing bulbs.I know that the light in the front is a "normal" round bulb, i think its 10W (maybe 5), and the ones in the back i think are the ones that looks almost like a old fuse.The back dome lights look similar to this.The front dome light looks similart to this or this. But im not sure..

All I see in the "Replacement Bulbs" section is headlamp high/low beam, front turn, stop/tail,back-up,rear turn, then one called CHMSL with a bulb number 921, what is CHMSL.

Instead of replacing the tube/fuse-looking bulbs i just bought one of those lamp condoms.. Looks nice with red lights.I may have to paint the front light or order one online, couldnt find one that matched here in town.

Here are some pictures of what it looks like. Looks nicer in real life, kinda hard to capture this on camera, it's brighter than it looks.
