I went out and bought a bulb for my map light pictured below:

I'm trying to put it in here and can't quite figure it out.

Can anyone help...? :grino:
My bet you better take wifey to home depot and find an nice looking lamp ;)
I guess she'll be more comfortable driving in the VX while looking at it once you get that lamp in there !:p
story of my life....my bulbs to big for the socket....damn
You are obviously using the wrong tool for the job. Per "the" instruction manual you are to use a large heavy object ( a brick is recommended) to "reshape" the bulb and then it should fit without any problems. Of course if you want the bulb to actually work then you need to refer to the "other" manual. Good luck...hope this helps.:)
This I am sure would solve your problem also 'junky!
