Owners of other Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and RAM vehicles such as the Town & Country, 200, Pacifica, Avenger, Charger, Journey, Challenger, Dart, Durango, Magnum, Grand Caravan, Grand Cherokee, Renegade, Wrangler, Compass, Liberty, Patriot, ProMaster, 1500 and C/V Tradesman minivan may also find these DIY instructions to be helpful.

A replacement "rigid loop" base light bulb is part number 562 which is available from various manufacturers such as Sylvania, GE, PIAA and Eiko.

You can also use a brighter compatible 562 LED bulb.

The only tool needed to access and replace the light bulbs is a small flathead screwdriver or a plastic pry bar tool.

At least in this 2016 300C, there was a cargo light on either side of the trunk.

Use a small flathead screwdriver or a plastic automotive panel pry bar tool in to the notch at the top of the light housing.

Gently pry out the light housing and remove it from the trunk liner.

Press in the release tab on the white plastic electrical connector before sliding the plug straight out of its socket.

If the old bulb was recently turned on, be careful since it might still be hot enough to burn your fingers.

Disconnect the wire loops at the end of the bulb from their metal electrical contacts.

Insert the new bulb in to the socket.

If you are using an LED bulb and it doesn't work at first, try flipping it around in the socket.

Push the electrical connector straight in to its socket until it clicks securely in to place.

Gently snap in the retaining clip on the top edge of the light housing.

Test the new cargo area light bulb by opening and closing the trunk or by pressing the "Unlock" button on the key fob to activate the interior lights.
