Interior Light Snafu: A DIY Situation

I have previously used the streaming capability back when it first came out as well as the hotspot since before Connect+ was a thing. I am trying to get the streaming working again but it seems to have been hidden fully behind the paywall. (Not looking to argue the merits of that system here) I recall after Connect+ came out being able to still use the Hotspot while tethering with my phone, and losing it isn't a big deal other than needing to update my wife's wifi, but I think I remember needing to be on the Hotspot to do casting. My question is, did Rivian remove both of these features to fully behind the connect+ paywall? I thought that if you used phone tethering or if you were connected to WIFI you could use most all of the usual streaming like features of the Rivian? If anyone can recommend how to stream while using tethering I'm sure myself and others without Connect+ would appreciate it.

Yesterday, my kid decided the rear dome lights should turn on if he push on them hard enough.

Didn't know how to fix it causes it was looking like I would need to get the plastic surround out of the headliner to push the light back in from behind.

After hours of trying and failing, I finally got it sorted. Had to pull down headliner, which was easier than I feared. Fortunately didn’t break any clips. Hopefully nobody tries that trick again. Argh.
