Seat Heat bulb change and center console removal...help!

Hey guys, I need a quick scan of the service manual for an 05 TSX.

My seat heat button light on the passenger side went out and I have no idea how to remove the center console to change it. I purchased the bulb on Friday, but now I have no idea how to get to the switch. I don't want to start pulling things apart without knowing what I'm doing.

So if anyone have the service manual or can point me in the right direction as to how to remove the center console, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks

You can try "YouTube".
There are lots of video instructions for how to remove the center console.

lcrzyaznl did a great DIY for it too! Those bulbs are dirt cheap at Radioshack.

I posted pictures last year of how I did it on the below thread, but I would recommend using non-metal tools.

Be careful, and good luck

Thanks for the help guys. I searched before I started this thread and that link didn't even pop up. Maybe I didn't type in the "key" words.

I never even thought of checking Radioshack. I figured these bulbs would be nearly impossible to find given it's size. The dealer charge me $4 for one....WOW!
