Map Light

Bought some LED for the interior of my truck. The question is how do you change out the Map Lights on a 2006 supercrew. The map lights look like there built into the overhead cluster which contains the sun glasses holder and the button for my sliding rear window. Do I have to remove the entire cluster. Thanks RIch

Just stick a flat head in between and pop off the cover which will expose the bulbs.
