So I had a few lights that were burned out on my climate control. The first 4 lights weren't working and during the night, you couldn't see which buttons you were pressing.



I decided I had some time and wanted to change them today. Only 2 of the 5 bulbs in the back were done, but while I was in there I thought I'd change them all. I picked all the bulbs up online from Honda's web site for about 12 bucks. The product number is 79671-SMA-941.


I took out the center console piece where the shifter and butt warmers are. I then removed the storage box under the head unit to get access to the screws holding in the head unit to the car.


With the head unit out, you can see from the backside that there are 5 white bulbs where the climate control bar is (the beige piece).


I swapped them out with a regular flat head screwdriver and then put everything back together.


After everything, it took me about 40 minutes and guess what, I HAVE LIGHTTTTSSSS

Thanks for sharing... Why dont you go for LED?

I didn't want to worry about compatibility issues or anything else like that for the matter so I just went with the regular OEM bulbs. I knew they'd work if I installed those. My priority one was to get the burned bulbs replaced and working.

omgahhhh! Mine have been out for ever! LOL. I think I finally know how to replace it lol

Do it!!! I was getting tired of how mine were burned out

that red trim doe! dope!

Thanks man! Did it all last summer

I know Im late .. but this post saved my life. I had taken the radio out multiple times (to install my iSimple) but never thought the lights were so easily accessible.

Anyway, just wanted to say thanks!

Does anyone know how to fix the lighting from the radio portion? My heater/ac control lighting works but the radio control lighting is burned out and I don't see any bulbs for it.
