2016 Puddle Light Write up.
I recently upgraded every last light on my truck to cool white LED's all were fairly simple and found write ups for all, except for the puddle light write up or video. So here, it is. It's my first, so bear with me.
STEP 1: Turn mirror inward as far as possible and gently pull off, it will sounds bad but it won't break anything as long as you're gentle. After that, follow these pictures below.

Remove screws to begin the removal of the lower cover and light housing assembly.

Here, you can see the difference in the bulbs. MAKE SURE YOU REALLY PRESS THE NEW BULB IN, I PUT EVERYTHING BACK TOGETHER AND HAD TO RE-DO IT. The connection is very finicky.

Here's a picture of the new bulb, and over a street light. So you can still see how bright it is.

Make sure you order bulbs capable of dimming. I got these from diodedynamics.com
