danwat1234 says:

Mine was flickering and so I took it apart like that but instead of wedging somethin ign there I liftin up theose 3 contact points a bit and rubbed sand paper on both sides (the switch side and the ceiling of th 3 contacts) because mine looked like some corrosion had taken place from little bitsof arcing maybe, not sure. It works better now but the switch isn’t that tight since I didn’t wedge anything like u did so the light flickers sometimes. The incandescent iswaytoodim;useOznium 4-chip 16led

Hi HondaHowTo1, how do you remove the bulb on that type of dome light? My Honda City 2000 has exactly the same dome light and I’m trying to replace the OEM bulb with LED’s but the OEM bulb wont budge. Thanks

Ray Sir says:

my 00 Civic LX has the 31mm incandescent (has 2 ends) instead of the the single screw on… any ideas of the dimension inside the dome piece? I plan to install the 4-led SMD bulbs into it…so jw

@HondaHowTo1 you should do a video on aligning doors on 96 model civics and removing headliners. Thanks

Iamnasssty says:

my civic has an aftermarket deck and the light still works in AUTO mode!

ThaBrianLion says:

check my channel out i made a video about it and it works(:

Fixbook says:

If it came from the Honda owners manual then I’m sure it is true, and that would explain why mine doesn’t work for the door.

him240300 says:

I was reading through the Honda manual and it said if the stock cd/radio was replaced that the light, which would turn on when the door is open, would not work anymore…Any truth behind that?

mazzmari says:

You should have tested it before reinstalling.

Dave5589 says:

if the light doesnt turn on with the door, check the light green wire behind your deck,
it needs to be wired into your constant
