I enjoy the simple mods that anyone can perform and have your vehicle looking a little bit cooler and shed some more light in the vehicle. I highly doubt that my Sportage even has a glovebox light.
DIY - Glove Box Light Replacement with LED
I'll be using some 194 LED lights from AUXITO. You can save 10% by using that link OR use coupon code: CTRINK for 15% off!
The lights come with 14 LEDs. I'd also like to report that there are no CANBUS error codes or flickering!

DIY Instructions:
Tools needed:
- Pry tool (or small flathead screwdriver)
Time: 5 Minutes
Instructions
- Trim tool into the left side of the fixture. The opposite side of the fixture is just a pivot point so do not try on that side.
- Pull down on the left side to remove the fixture. You will find a black plastic cover that is removed by pulling up on the cover directly above where the fixture is plugged in.
- Remove and replace the bulb. Remember, they are omnidirectional so no matter which way you put them in, they work.
- Reclip the black plastic cover to the fixture.
- Reinstall the fixture into the glovebox.
