My '96 suburban has the overhead console with the small round map lights. I want to clean the dirty lenses and replace the bulbs with high intensity LED bulbs. How do I get to them?

I found that they come out by pushing in on the lens and turning. There is a pattern for a Torx driver molded into the face of the plastic. Then a small screwdriver is needed to remove the bulb from the bulb housing / lens assembly.
