Map lights are push-fit wedge type. Carefully prise lens off. The other three bulbs I assume are the puddle lights in the doors. Again carefully prise COMPLETE unit from door card (be carefull that you don`t split the lens from the main light body. Once out, buld change is self-evident. 33 or 35mm festoon type bulb.
Why have they blown :question

Thanks for the Map light ones :) and the other 3 are from the main light cluster mounted above the mirror. Only picked her up last week and they were already blown so not sure why

sorry maybe i misdescribed it lol. The main interior roof mounted light cluster has 4 bulbs in it when you pop the cover off. 3 have blown so its pretty dark inside i,ve tried to get the blown ones out but they dont seem to want to move and i,m not sure how they come out do they just pull out or do they twist and pull out
