Default 2002 dome light .. how to get to the bulb?

Do you pry the clear cover off? Twist the housing.. squeeze in on a certain spot? I find nothing in the owners manual except bulb recommendations..

Problem is all lights work except dome.. which WILL work if given a little "TAP".. not quite as hard as Brock Lesnar hit Cena in the mouth with, but more of a backknuckle rap.. so.. i wanna check for loose wires.. loose bulb.. etc.. anyone got anything?? Thanks..

I believe you just take a small screwdriver and pry it off, someone can correct me if I'm wrong lol.

There should be a slight notch on the front or back (not the sides, in other words), pry it off from there with a thin screwdriver. Takes a little more force than you'd expect (well, more than I expected anyway) but not enough that you start worrying about damaging something. It will then go flying off into the back and land under a seat where you can't reach it from the front.
