It's amazing what you can find with a little searching. 2 minutes later and look what I found:

Interior Lights

Do you just mean the bulbs in the corners of the doors like I did?

(They don't look particularly blue there, but they are fairly blue at night in reality).

Its hardly worth parting with your money to pay Colin to do it. I'm was about to order some LEDs from Ebay, so I can get you a set of door ones while I'm at it if you want. It'll set you back $13 for the 4 if I order them with mine.

Removing them is easy as pie.

Stick a flat screwdriver between the top of the casing and the door trim, and pry it out. You can sorta see a couple of spaces towards either end of the casing where cou can pry it. Hard to see in the photos, but you'll (hopefully) know what I mean when you look at it.

Once it pops out, unplug it and pull off the back casing.'

Once thats apart you can just pull out the globe and stick the new one in, then put it all back together and just pop the whole assemble back into place.

Apologies for the woeful photos. My camera phone is useless and I don't own an actual camera.
