Cup holder light question

My light is no longer green. Can someone take a pic of the light setup? I need to know if a cover should be over the bulb, or if it is a snap in cover.

I think there is a little green/blue lens that goes in there. Mine has it in the ashtray but I don't have a cupholder since its a manual. But if memory serves its a lens.

if you look under there you will see a little tab that releases the insert that holds the bulb. there is a greenish plastic piece that the light shines through but i just took 2 blue leds and wired them in there i like the tru blue look better

Not in it, but above it. That is if you have an automatic transmission.

The bulb in question is placed in a bulb holder, which snaps in place as mentioned above. In the bulb holder there is a little green cover that wiggles out of place over time. Just take out the bulb and put the cover back into position. Fairly easly to do.

Got her fixed/adjusted! The "filter" had moved when I had removed the cup holder for some extreme cleaning.
THANKS GUYS!
