Default LED Interior trunk lights

I want to replace the rear interior yrunk lights in a 2002 convertible. Do I pop the lens cover off, or pull the light/carpet back and replace the bulb from the rear? Thanks again for the help.

Just pull the lights casings out (gently to not break the side clamps) and pop-open the lenses,,,depends what style/design/size LED's youre using

You can get very creative on how you design those LED's, I have 24 LED panel lights in my trunk

Pull the housing out. You'll see a small blue twist lock baseon the back. Remove this, swap out the 194 bulb for your LED bulb and re-install. (makee sure to check for correct polarity)

These are really easy to install, literally a 1-2 minute job.
