The glove box has a panel on the side which gives easy access to the bulb in there
@TheENDLESSProduction2 жыл бұрын
There is a much easier way to replace the glovebox light. If you look inside of where the light plugs in, just above it you will see a small black tab. If you depress this tab with a pair of needle nose pliers the entire bulb unit and on/off depression switch will slide out of the glove box. Allows you to swap the light without the risk of dropping it. Simply pop it back into place when finished.

I went with the HP11 bulbs for the brake and turn signal and then the XPR for the tailgate backup. I thought it gave off plenty of lumens but wasn’t blinding bright. Also used AlfaOBD to configure the outside/body backup light bulb(7440) as the turn signal. It looks so much cleaner.

You can take the panel off the side of the glove box and go through the side to get the bulb also. But definitely use the tape method. Worked for me. That way you can use both hands to press the bulb in from the bottom at the light switch and the right side of the dash where the panel is.

well , no doubt the low beam on passenger side is a PIA. use a mirror to line yourself up. Regarding the glove box issue. with a mirror, yes there is a tab you can push in and then the unit will come out. gracefully no, you have to bull it out. but if you do, so much easier.

Yeah basically it's not clicking because the part you pulled it down from the (aluminum/ silver ) part at the top needs to be slide back into position. Line it back up with the black part . Try sliding the silver part left and right and you will see what I mean. It's not about going up or down, just force it left or right then put your plastic cover back on and you'll watch it click again. Good luck 👍🏽

Thanks for the video 👍 but, I'm telling everyone right now....my Diode Dynamics map lights and footwell lights came today for my '18 Grand Cherokee (didn't order the glovebox light because i couldn't install that last week, in my '23 Challenger 🤦♂️). If your lights work in your Grand Cherokee, leave them alone! This is a MAJOR aggravation, same as on the Challenger!!! You cannot grab the map/dome lights with needlenose pliers or tape, or anything else!!! And if you try and bend the silver metal plate to get to the bulb easier, that is around the inside, it will mess up the on/off push ability of that light!!! Do yourself a favor if you're reading this, if your lights are working and you don't want/need anymore aggravation in your life (over something so small/stupid)..... leave well enough alone!!! 😖..... Actually, the footwell lights in this/'18 Grand Cherokee are super easy to change, the cover just pops off and you can grab the light and pull it right out!!! Oh, and on a '23 Challenger, the trunk light is easy to change!!! Anything else on these 2 vehicles....if the lights are working, i would let well enough alone!!! If it ain't broke, dont fix it!!!🤣😅🤣
