Has anybody tried to replace the interior lightbulbs? (the ones in the moonroof control box)

never mind, figured it out while hardwiring my radar detector

thinking about putting in brighter bulbs.. not sure thou, the front one is pretty bright already

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 will go out to the car and get it.....post where I should look for info

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.

ok, thanksi'll pull the bulbs out tonight and look at them.

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.
