the little blue lights should just pull out like so... correct? i can't get them out... do i have to take the white part off or something? i know on a cluster they twist out the back, but i can't get the white part off the climate control to even try that.. when i try to get it off it feels like i'm gonna break it!

btw, thats not my picture.

i'll try using a needle nose pliers, i just dont wanna break them. i honestly dont even know if they are burnt but i got this climate control out of my parts car because the one in my coupe has a broken knob thing and the tab is broken too so i can't just put a new one on there and if i put this new climate control in and one of the lights is burnt out i'm gonna be pissed.

Cant you just hook up the harnesses and turn the lights on to see if it lights up, before you actually mount it back in the dash??

have you ever put a climate control in or taken one out? not being mean...

its the most annoying jobs ever. the plugs are hard as hell to get too, you have like no room to work. its hard as hell to plug them in and shit. i'd rather just replace them while its out and everything so i know they will work.

you have to pull out the blue bulb only. The brown base does not come out. I used pliers to pull them out. be careful not to press too hard or they will break.

Congratulations getting that far. Took me awhile to get there with the JDM audio console in the way :(


The worse part is putting on the heater cable on correctly. a slight mm off and you get somewhat heat from your max cold.


i see you already have this to use.
