Hi everyone, sorry of this showed up twice, when I tried to post it the
first time everything just froze and it came up and said the website
was down. Anyway, my wife has a 98 saturday and the bulb went out - so
I went out and got a new one, but for the life of me I cannot get that
darn dome light cover off - What is the trick?? I feel like if I pull
any harder its either going to break it or im going to rip the whole
thing off the roof!!! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

(I just changed the dome light on my 1999 Saturn Sedan. I hope this helps.) 1. Remove the clear plastic cover: IMPORTANT: Turn the dome light switch to "Off". On the passenger's side of the dome light there is a small, rectangular opening (a slot). Stick a Flathead screwdriver DEEPLY into this slot in order to press a catch inside. The clear cover should swing open on its "hinges". I popped the cover out of the hinges for easy access. 2. Remove old bulb: Move the bulb forward (towards the front of the car). The bulb is supported by two silver-colored contacts (little pieces of metal). Move the bulb forward a little and up a little while pushing one of the contacts towards the other one. This should slide the old bulb out. 3. Connect new bulb: The bulb number for a 1999 Saturn sedan is 562. Slide the new bulb onto the contacts while squeezing the contacts together. Turn dome light switch to "On" to see if bulb works. 4. Replace clear plastic cover: Pop the cover back on the hinges. Swing the cover back into place. 5. If it worked, then help someone else!
