Does your reardoor ash trays light up, well mine did'nt and could'nt find any info on this very important fix . So here's how to replace the bulbs .

1) lift up the ashtray lid

2) Pull up and out the ashtray

3) Look in side the ashtray holder and locate the two very thin wires
which will be going to the bulb holder. You will not be able to see
the bulb holder , but with care pull down at the wires at the point
nearest to where the wires end.

4) Replace the 5w wedge bulb and feel where the bulb holder came
from and with some fiddling replace the bulb holder.

Some other info: The rear ash trays have two red lenses but only one bulb. This so the ashtrays can fit either door.
