Hey guys I’ve searched and can’t seem to find it but how can the map lights be changed out and does anyone know what three bulb types I need to replace the two maps and the dome light on a chrome unit in a 95? Thanks!

 

There are only 2 bulb types, and they're listed in the owner's manual. To change the map bulbs, remove the dome lens, back out (but don't remove) the 3 screws, and the chrome assembly will come down. But I'd never put a chrome one back up - it's SO much better to put in the later plastic dome/map assembly, like Ford did on most '94-up trucks.

Either way: use LED bulbs - not incandescent.

 

thanks I don’t have my manual can you please tell me the bulb numbers? Thanks! PS I just ordered a mint plastic housing on eBay

 

'92-96 trucks are nearly identical, so download the '96 owner's manual from Ford, and search it using CTRL+F (on a computer, obviously) for "bulb". But you can keep a copy of the PDF on your phone, so you can browse it any time.

BTW
How much did you pay for the plastic dome lamp?

This shows how I convert mine to LED:

Thanks for posting this. I was just thinking that my chrome fixture looks bad and couldn’t find a decent one - these are much easier to find. As far as wiring in, I assume no issues. More specifically, I would think that the wiring on a 1991 and the models these newer fixtures are designed for line up fine correct?

 

Glad my 95 came with the manual when i bought it 6 yrs ago lol

 

I'm sure the OP is glad you waited 2 years after this thread died to post that.

 

LOL

 

Better late than never...

 

Holy crap i didnt even look at the post date lmao oops
