yes it should light up
it does show you how to remove it but you have to remove a lot of trim to do it
my + and - dont light up so I am waiting till the rest start to go before I replace them

thats it you need to reverse engineer it so to speak
also the globes are T5 I do believe

ok bit the bullet and decided to replace the blown globe today, what a pig of a job! took me around 3 hours to do but happy i did it as i hate something not working properly. Rang mitsi for the price on the T5 wedge base led globe they said $13.75 each!!! ended up getting them from Jaycar for $2.95 each what a difference.

Mine are blown too. But three hours is a bit long.
I feel another how-to coming along

I had my trans globes replaced under warranty. It's not exactly a user replaceable item like your tail lights etc. If they wanted you to replace them yourself they would have made it easy to access.

Yep i've got the flicker too...it was a cool effect for a while, but I think i'll get em replaced at the next service. i'll try the warranty route.
