I need to replace the light bulb in the center console for a 1999 Accord EX.

I removed the trim ring around the automatic's gear shift selector. I could see two wires going to the light bulb under the clear gear selector window but I could not see how to remove the plastic housing containing the window.

Do you know how to get to the bulb?

Hi jlavella,

The bulb is plugged in and twisting the socket would allow it to be removed.

Removeing the centre console would allow you to gain access.
