This
automotive "how-to" guide was specifically written to assist owners
of the 1st generation (2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, & 2013) Nissan
Rogue in changing a burnt out cargo area light bulb in the underside
of the rear tailgate door. Owners of other Nissan or Infiniti vehicles such as the Versa, Cube, Sentra, Altima, LEAF, Maxima, Juke, Murano, Xterra, Pathfinder, Armada, Quest, Frontier, Titan, 370Z, G37, M37, EX37, FX37, JX35, and QX56 may also find these DIY instructions to be helpful. A replacement cargo area light bulb is part # DE3175 from various manufacturers such as Sylvania, GE, Eiko, Putco, and PIAA. You can also use a brighter DE3175 LED bulb. The only tool needed to change the bulb is a small flathead screwdriver used to pry out the light housing. |
