[C320-list] Cabin lights?

[Christian]

David,
my best advice to you is be VERY careful getting those light covers off.
The typically become brittle with age and light heat, and crack easily.
And aren't replaceable.

They snap on, so just work one side off with a finger nail, very gently.

I had a couple that had gotten mildly corroded on the wire terminals that
are riveted on the bulb terminal.  Little bit of cleaner and swivel brought
mine back to life.

I'd strongly recommend converting your bulbs in these lights to LED for a)
lower heat to not make the plastic covers more brittle, and b) fewer times
you have to take the covers off to replace.  I used these and am VERY happy
with how warm the white is.  And yes, the 9 LED model will fit in your dome:

I used the warm white in my side domes and galley domes.  I used red in my
2 center over head domes for minimal night vision loss.
