of the 2nd generation 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 & 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe SUV in replacing

A new bulb for the dome light of a Hyundai Santa Fe is part # DE3175 from Sylvania, Phillips, GE, Eiko and other manufacturers.You can also use a brighter DE3175 LED bulb. The only tool needed to replace the dome light bulb is a small flathead screwdriver. Insert the blade of the screwdriver in between the translucent lens cover and the housing. |
