Plz help map lights

[WillV]

Hey guys,

Do any of you know how to take the map light bulb out??? I can't for the life of me get it! And I was playing with it for so long today trying to that it just doesn't work anymore....

I did a search on here and I only found the write up for DIY map lights, but in the write up The stock bulbs were already removed

Push in, twist out. If I recall correctly.

Update: thanks Ilya, I got them out! Also, it just appears that I bent the connection and will have to just adjust it back! So I should be good.

Replacing my map lights in my 07 was a complete pain. I also bent the housing and foolishly grabbed the bent piece with a pair of needle-nosed pliers. Somehow, I completed the lamp circuit and I heard a little <clink>. Nothing inside the car worked - no seats, no dash lights, etc. Worse yet, I had the driver's seat all the way back and reclined whilst working on the map lights and the seat became stuck in that position. That is where I was sat whilst driving to the dealer, holding myself upright without the use of a seat back in stop-and-go traffic, and with the steering wheel all the way into the dash and fully upwards. The bill was nearly nothing for the cost of the fuses, but I had to pay 30min labor for them to install the fuses (~$90).

I certainly hope I didn't do that for the simple reason that I am currently at the university and there is no Infiniti dealer within an hour and a half drive...
