I'm using my phone to post this and this website is giving me errors that my images are too large to upload so here's an imgur link instead https://imgur.com/gallery/owk3YLq

-First i went to Walmart and bought the cheapest, clearest, dishwasher/microwave safe Tupperware.
-Then i took my ash tray out and used a small flat head to pry the oem plastic window off
-Then i cleaned and dried the ash tray
-Then i traced the oem window over the Tupperware with a sharpie
-Then i used a very sharp utility knife to cut out a new window by following the inside of the sharpie marks
-After cutting out the new window i simply used gorilla glue to glue the new one on but I used too much glue

Yeah, you were trying to upload an image that was 31.25"w by 41.67"h.

I've cropped and resized it to a more manageable size.

upgrading the bulb wasn't an option?

You'd have to take the entire center console apart to get to it. I'm too scared of breaking something if I take it apart so I did this instead (for history, I broke some clips in my lesabre and impala when upgrading radio)
