Big fail tried many times over 3 days to get them damn lights out. I gave up ordered 2 and they are on the way. When I have spares in hand will take original out completely or put LEDs in new ones and than work bench install leds in old visors as well. Not sure how others got them I tried all the tricks some I couldn’t as there is like a small white shield around back side of bulb. I even took wire shrink wrap and melted that on different needle nose pliers to make bulb type pullers. I even had build and socket hanging out visor couldn’t get ’em. These are last led swap.
Many people have ruined their visors getting those out. I did mine by removing the mirror and then they are easy. You can pry up on the bottom see photo. Make sure you hold pressure on the corner so it does not pop up. Then slide the glass out.
I tried all the tricks and nothing worked for me. Those $2 dollar led bulbs cost me a $200 dollar visor. Never again and why even change them as the visor lights will prob never be used.
Took the visors completely out of the car and replaced the bulbs on the bench. Made it a lot easier than doing it while seated in the car. They pop in/out really easy.....
I got my bulbs out using a small jewelers type screwdriver, took a bit of wiggling back and forth though……now getting the LEDS back in, that was a bitch!!!! I lost 2 LEDs inside the visor itself. I recommend putting a cottonball above and
below the bulb socket to prevent it from going inside if it falls. I used the same screwdriver and the edge of the mirror frame to force the LED back into the socket, make sure to place your hand on the backside of the visor so you dont accidentally poke a hole thru the fabric with the bulb or screwdriver

Ahh Yes when fiddling with mine the bottom popped out and I was like oh boy, but got wire to under side and still could not grip bulb, I was thinking maybe pop whole thing off but read of horror stories of people ruining them. I going to give another go when I have spares on hand. LOL
I'm betting your trick is best and that is going to be 1st thing I do. Thank you for the advise.
So New Visors came in and took only 4 days I got them on Temu, for 35.00 for the Pair, they look better than the OEM and had LEDs already, Popped them in and now golden. Saving the OEM's for a just in case like all the other MODs I've made.
I was expecting junk visors from Temu but for 35 bucks figured I would gamble as most our stuff come from China anyway.
Sooo Update!
I installed the China Visors that came with LEDs and Decided to take my OEM's to my desk.
I envy you guys that got that Bastard Bulb out while on car! I
Slid Mirror out the bottom as discussed and was Pulling the crap out of bulb tried a few times till it shattered in my face, good thing I wear glasses. Someone had also pointed out put tiny jeweler screw driver in bottom of bulb socket and pushed each side till it popped out. That worked like a champ!
I now have them all out and need to order correct bulb, was hoping they were 194's like all the others but nope.
Thanks for all the guidance guy's and hope it helps people in future.
Vanity Bulb Size is it T4 or 74?
I'm thinking Bulb is 74 style
