    May I recommend pulling the fuse first?...

    Now you just sound like the Shop Manual:

    "Replacing wiper blades: Step 1, Disconnect the battery..."
    "Installing replacement gasoline: Step 1, Disconnect the battery..."
    "Vacuuming carpet: Step 1, Disconnect the battery..."



    Kidding, of course - I'm glad this topic came up since I also have a map light out. Thanks for all the tips and advice everyone!

    That is actually what the shop manual suggests before changing the map light. Sounded a bit much for the task.
