dome light malfunction..help..lol

so i get some blue LED dome bulbs from ebay. cool yea i guess, one came broken and the other one..well lets start this adventure.

so i pry the bitch open and its all good, besides shattering the OEM bulb trying to get it out. then i get the LED in, and i think "this thing isnt really that bright"..or maybe i was foreshadowing how i should be thinking about myself. so i replace the cover, and still thinking, maybe this isnt in right, it doesnt impress me (instructions said could cause blindness, i was expecting BRIGHT) so i attempt to take it out, and i bend the electrodes on the actual bulb. oh well, there goes 20 bucks down the drain. so i replace the plastic and get out of my car. when im using the remote to lock it, seems like my remote decides not to work anymore. and the interior clock on the console doesnt work either.

so fellas, what in the hell did i do? i bought replacement bulbs, put them in, and they wont come on. Did i short out the fuse somehow and it tampered with my remote signal? please help lol i feel soooo stupid.

try checking all your fuses... behind the coin tray and in your engine bay... my dome light and clock just went off, all it was was the fuse was blown in the engine bay... i think the fuse is labeled as "dome" on the cover for the fuses...
