What are doom lights? Do flicker on and off constantly and sometimes glow dark red?
Which dome lights are you talking about? The one in the front near the sunroof buttons is pretty easy. The manual has instructions on how to manually crank the sunroof open. Follow those instructions on removing the center cover where the Homelink buttons are and you can see where to go from there to remove the dome light covers.
Removing the homelink button cover... why do that? Just push in the plastic tabs with a screwdriver on the lenses and they pivot out. Put in a bulb from somewhere else that you know is working and try again. Are the lights under the doors and under the dash not working either?
@ asian- you beat me to the doom thing. I was going to say it's probably a good thing, at least you aren't getting a warning of impending doom. (Oh, wait, that's the CEL.)

Sorry, I like to do things the complicated way. I was going to recommend removing the headliner first.
