    I accidentally rotated the 5W light bulb base in this plastic module and the base disappeared above the module. So I need to remove the module to retrieve and reinstall the bulb base. I can't see any screw heads or any other holding tabs .
    I can pop off the plastic cover just forward (extends to the windshield edge) of the switch module, but this doesn't lead to the switch module ?
    Any help appreciated.

    One guy here removed the map light cluster for some reason when switching over to interior LED lighting.
    Sorry I don't have the link- but he did have some photos there too.
    IIRC- the whole assembly comes out without any screws- it's held into the headliner with built in clips.
    I know it's not much help- but if you search through the Gen III "accessory" forum looking at the LED upgrade threads you should be able to see his post with photos.
