Sunroof Switch
« on: 16 September 2006, 11:58:02 »

Hi All, can anyone tell me how to replace the bulb that illuminates the sunroof switch on a 1999 CDX, I can't see how to get at the back of the switch surround and Haynes doesn't cover it.

Not all have (easily) changable bulbs believe it or not.

If it has, then do this (from memory):
Pull off switch by pulling downwards.
Remove clear plastic ring which acts as light guide.
Push in clips so sunroof switch lifts above pastic surround as is loose.
Remove plastic surround by prising out courtesy light, then undoing 2 screws holding it in place.
You should be able to see bulb now - it simply pulls out...

Reassembly is reverse...

Yep, did this last week, 5 minute job with patience....dont force the trim it should gently prize off.

Only other thing you need is a philips screwdriver, oh and a new bulb :)

Thanks Boys, can you remember which bulb it is? I will get one before starting the job.

Cheers, much appreciated, Haynes, as usual, is about as much use as a chocalate fireguard!

Am I right to think this is the same bulb for both facelift and pre facelift with the dial in the ceiling.

I think they are something like £1.50 from Vx although it was a while ago that I enquired about a new one.

They are now £2 plus VAT, and of course they don't carry them in stock, it is factory order. Good old Vauxhall dealers eh!.
