Glove box light removal
« on: December 12, 2018, 02:11:21 »
I need to remove the map light fixture from the glove box door for a repaint. Anyone have any experience unscrewing the outside bezel without messing it up? I presume the two holes on the side of the bezel take some special tool to rotate it. Appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
Mike

I just use a simple set of lock pliers that you can get at any hardware store. You can cover the chrome with thin material for extra protection if you want.  Insert and twist. Simple 👍
