Default Replacing map light bulbs?

How do i get the housing off, i have already replaced the dome light in the rear but i cant seem to get the front light housing off so i can replace the bulbs.

The bulbs are V-Leds and are the "cool blue" ones.

Ill snap some pics of the rear lights in a sec.

I finally just yanked the map light housing down and put the bulbs in.

The Front bulbs are much brighter than the back one. The front is also more of a blue tint while the back has a green tint to them, but still is blue just not the EXACT same color.

Front Bulbs
Back Bulb -I believe this is the one i bought lol.

I actually like them and if you get them you will too, they almost make the cab glow and dont blind your eyes at all.
