Hi,

I have a 2Gb Talon ESi, one of the interior lamp bulbs is broken on the right side. I'm trying to take off the cover to replace the bulb, but there doesn't seem to be any slots to pop it open.

Anyone know how you can remove this cover without destroying it? Thanks in advance. :)

you have to pry against the cover and headliner with a flat head screw driver,but be careful not to damage the headliner.

That works for us 1g guys but I wasn't sure on a 2g. I was waiting, hoping a 2g guy would know the exact spot to push and pry. I'm guessing there's an internal plastic catch on the 2g's.
 
Okay I got it. For 2Gs, there are these 4 snaps on the light cover. All you have to do is pry at it where the snaps meet the outer gray cover. You need a knife for this since a Flathead won't fit. Do this for 2 snaps on either side and the cover should pop out.
