How to remove overhead light console?
25

Asked by logullo Jun 17, 2007 at 01:14 PM about the 2007 Honda CR-V EX-L AWD

Question type: Car Customization

I want to install an aftermarket rear-view mirror (with compass) for my wife. I hope to find a 12V source in the overhead courtesy multi-purpose assembly (switchable dome lights, sunroof switch, dome light override, sunglass holder). There are two hex-head screws inside, behind the sunglass holder. However, are there more fasteners hidden somewhere? Before I start prying and break something... there must be some way to get in to change the bulbs; any advice?

i would probably start poking and prodding to try and get the thing out, but I understand your trepidation to do so on a new car. If I were you I would swing by a Honda dealer and ask them how to remove it. I'm sure they would be more than happy to answer you question.

There are 4 screws holding the overhead light console on. You found the 2 inside the sunglass holder. The other 2 are under the clear map light covers. Find a video on changing the map lights that should show you how to remove the covers. Then the screws are easy to see and silver color. After you get all 4 screws out pull down on the side where the map lights are first, then slide it toward the windshield to pull it out.
