I just replaced the factory incandescent lamps in my 2022 S model's map / dome light and rear dome light with LEDs. The pic doesn't do them justice given how bright it was out today with the snow. They're definitely going to light up the cabin better than the incandescent bulbs did.
It wasn't wise to have at this in 30degF temps like I did. The lenses for the map / dome light were difficult to pry off in the cold. If you use anything metal, you are going to bugger up the plastic housing. I switched to a plastic trim tool after the first attempt. The rear dome light lens (crew cab model) popped off very easily.
These are the LED bulbs I used: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08FCX3FFN?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
On a side note, does anyone know how to remove the map / dome light housing from the headliner? Are these like the Xterras, where you kind of push the whole assembly towards the rear of the vehicle and pry downward?
