Default How the heck to change Glovebox light bulb

OK, somewhat ashamed to ask something that should be soo simple, but this is kicking my ****.

How do you get the bulb out? I can't even figure out how to get push button assembly out.

Thanks, It is already out because I was messing with the CJB. I think it has something to do with the white ring around the plunger button, but can't figure out what.

OK, figured it out. you need to remove the three screws at top of the lower glove box that holds the dash together, using a small screw drive pull the white ring (clip) around the plunger/switch towards you and then push the whole switch mechanism out but pulling down on the part you took the three screws out of.

Looks like a 168 bulb.

BTW, those three screws I was talking about where not actually there, son might have removed them. Does anyone know what kind and size they are?
