Ok so... After talking to our fellow member.. Looks as tho we found the problem. So, let’s address a few things. 1. The videos made by Lasfit LED are using a different bulbs then what we are ordering. Please just follow the instructions about how to replace. If you go by what bulb they use Vs what you have, you May have some confusion. No big deal! I totally get how it could happen.
Second off... Please for the love of god do not follow the video about how to remove the overhead map lights. I’ve also emailed them telling them about this, and how poor it is.
Very quickly, without cool photos..over head map lights.
Step 1. Turn off the lights operated by door switch, to off. Let the bulbs cool down.
step 2. Open the sunglasses holder.
step 3. Look in that area for two 8mm socket head screws. Remove counter clockwise. once remove, put in your cup holder.
step 4. Go back to this area where you pulled the previous hardware out, and locate two plastic looking tabs... And with your finger push them back..and you’ll feel them release. Now, the back is out!
step 5. I would prefer to see people use a plastic crowbar and move to the front of the bezel.. this is not for the faint of hearts.. you’ll push your headliner, stick the plastic crowbar in, and pry the whole assembly down! You can use your fingers to help. Don’t worry, the headliner will go back to shape! It’s only held on with metal pop-clips like from a door speaker grill.
step 6 once you pull the assembly straight down, and off.. pull the slack down and remove the two power cables (at least I had two, maybe more) be sure to remove the red clips if you see them on the harness connector. Those are red locks! They won’t let it move when in position. So, finger nail them back. And disconnect the harnesses.
step 7. This part also sucks. Look around the trim... Some say and prefer to pop the lens from the out side at this point, and mar up the plastic. I don’t like Mark’s on my plastic. So, I go the hard and right way. Yes... All those tabs!! Move them, pull the trim away and all the trim tabs, two will be hidden on each side, in those little pockets.. and you’ll also have one on each side that looks like it clips around a bar.. (it does) you’ll have to pull these out as well.
step 8 once you fight with the trim.. and get it off.. with NO broken tabs. You win! Lol. Break a tab or two won’t hurt that bad.. but can cause looseness. Move that aside, and look at the bulb area.. in the front you’ll see two more plastic tabs. They hold the light pod in place sort of. Push them back to release (trust me, you’ll see them) and start to wiggle out the bulb wire holder.
Success. Make sure when you push the bulbs in to place they seat right. Look at the back side and push the metal tab firmly to place. Again, you’ll understand looking at and pushing in the bulb.
Now, you can test before fit, or go ahead assemble and take a chance! Up to you! On assembly make sure you put all those annoying plastic tabs to the right place. Some will want to jump back and get in the way. I don’t know why.
Locks for the harness so they don’t pull out. Not a huge deal if you don’t re-lock.
Make sure you pull the metal clips from the roof of the truck, and put it back on the plastic stand off’s on the main unit. This way both will snap back into place as they should. If you don’t, you May not get the front to latch up right.
push the unit back to place, don’t forget the 8mm socket head screws.. sit back.. and watch how bright these are.
I’m actually looking in to adjusting these with AlfaOBD
I’ll try and get photos up of all this.
