Default Console flood lamp replacement

I have a 2004 GT. It has what I think is called the console flood lamp which is under the center of the instrument panel and illuminates the cup holder and console. It has gone out. How do I get to it to replace it? Not really necessary but it is annoying as it doesn't work. I used to have a Honda Goldwing and their web site helped me fix a lot of things. Your is invaluable and I eagerly await your replies. Thanks, Ray

Ray,

Good question. I just took a look at it and can see that it's inclosed in an oblong black piece that looks like it prys out. There's a really small tab on one end and when I move the tab the whole oblong black square does move a bit and I think it will drop right down to replace the bulb but mine is stuck pretty tight and didn't want to force it. It's working now and don't want to break it in case someone comes along and says that you get to it through the center console, which might not be a bad idea. Removing the center console is easy and from there all the panels can come out to give access to the inside where the light might be.

Thanks Crewzin,

Mine moves just a bit also, but I too did not want to force it. I was hoping that someone else had already replaced theirs. It might be the best to go at it from the console.
