Is there an instruction provided on how to remove the interior light covers? I would have to break anything and would love a detailed instruction.

No Instructions. All you need is a flat head screwdriver and they pop out of the tabs.

No there isn't any instruction.. but its very easy to change those lights. . You wouldn't have to break anything. .you need a flat had screwdriver And just be gentle..

I did it without instruction. You just need to remove carefully interior light covers with a thin screwdriver. The covers are fixed with pressure for two pins retainer. I hope that this information helps you.Regards,Paulo

Hi Van S....there was no instructions, but the power of YouTube was with me when I installed them... I used a butter knife wrapped in a thin cloth... There are a couple of good instructional videos on YouTube... It's an easy install

Flat head screwdriver, that's it if you go on YouTube you might find a video on how to do it

If you go to Honda ....http://www.Piloteers.org and search there, they actually have videos to do so. Or go toYoutube and do a search like, "LED interior lights for Honda Pilot". You may see some there too. I used a curved butter knife....as I didn't have a flexible but strong nylon type, meant for it. Good luck.

I did this. It was moderately difficult task. I could not find photo instructions for my model, but found them for similar models. Its been several months since I replaced the wheel so I'm glossing over the process. Start by disconnecting all the input and output cable. I recommend marking them and taking a digital photo for reference. Remove the screws to remove the back cover. There are a lot of them and some are not obvious. Take your time. The ones on the outside wings kept catching me. Document where the screws came from. Remove the cover. You will probably have to remove the lamp assembly, lens and shroud. There will be wires that get hung up, so trace them to the connector on the board and gently remove the connector. Document, document, photo, photo along the way. Once you get to the color wheel, which mine was buried and not easy to get at. Remove the 3 screws holding it in place. (top, bottom and back if I recall) Removing the tiny little connector wire is very difficult as the connector will probably shatter. Then you pick out the pieces with a pick and tweezers. Someone else suggested leaving that end in tact and reusing the wire. I did not do that although I might consider it if there is a next time. Once the color wheel is reseated, wire connected and screws replaced reverse reassemble everything you took apart up to now. lens, shroud, lamp, any wire connectors removed, side plastic and finally back cover. Reconnect all the inputs and output cables. I'm fairly handy but had to make my way through the TV as there were no step by step instructions that I could find. Total time about 7 hours (2 hours of picking the broken connector pieces out of the socket) If I had it to do again I could probably do it in 3 hours.

A body shop can probably do it, you just have to take the inner door panel off by first pulling some pins and then lifting up, should hear some pops and it should come koose , there are going to be some wires to unclup but then you can drill the hole and run the wires to the sensor by the hinges that controlled the dinging and interior lights when the door is opened, then install and put the door back together.

I remember I had a hard time putting the lights in. Thought I was going to break them.I would try inserting them again. If that does not work, return it.Hope this helps!

Take headlight out and make adjustments to the screws on the back of each light; kind of a pain!

It's not set up like a flashlight where you can just unscrew the top to get to the bulb. The circuitry runs through the same area so I feel like it's something that you might need a professional to take apart. There's nothing about replacing the bulb anywhere in the instructions

I used a small flat screwdriver to pry the lenses off. You should browse the Ridgeline Owners Club for pictures and tips. It's pretty easy if you take your time and look at them carefully. LEDs won't work if installed the wrong way. You can't hurt them by installing "backwards", just turn them around and make sure they light before reinstalling the cover.

Did you have the car on at the time? I did the same and blew my interior lights fuse. There is a spare in the fuse box. If you remove the fuse, install all the lights and then replace the fuse that's the safest way. Hope this helps!!

Take the cover lense off, remove the light and the number will be on the inside

You don't have to remove anything. It just sticks on despite what the instructions say. I imagine there is some drilling involved with the illuminated version.

I can't see any way to remove the battery compartment, look like all one piece to me. there's nothing in the instruction manual neither. I'll take a picture of it if that helps.

I un bolted everything I could and un pluged the light. I then riped it out with little mucle. It broke the old lights plastic BS. Then took bolt out and clip holding it. I saw no other way unles you take off bumper im not going to do all that! Then put the new headlights in and bolted it down and even the bolt I got off the clip your having problem with. There is an ajustment behind light to ajust after. I ajusted my lights againt a wall and marked the wall and raised or lowered headlight beam each time I drove until it was good... Good luck

I've had the same problem. The thing is designed to allow the cover to be pulled down part way to change a bulb. If you pull the 'wings' all the way out, it's awkward to get them back... you kind of need three hands (or more - if you need a flashlight). You need to pinch the wing rods completely together - and then push them into one slot in the middle of each side of the inside top of the box - while you're trying to hold the rest up - that's why it's tough. Once you get them started into the small slots, you can just push the cover up from the outside. The wings will expand after you push the cover up, holding it in place... good luck.

There is a plate covering the screws. You pull off the plate, screw it in and replace the cover plate. Quite simple.

It's been awhile since I cleaned mine but as I recall, you can take a small flat screwdriver and put the tip between the light cover and the fan housing and lightly pry the cover out. I believe the tabs that lock in the light cover are on the vent sides of the fan housing so that is where you need to pry the cover with the screwdriver. It's also a good idea to clean out the vent openings periodically by either vacuuming out the dust or taking the fan housing down and washing it out. Hope that helps.

Unfortunately your having the same problem I and another friend have had. You can zip tie the light to the mounting bracket and still have the ability to remove the light ad bracket together and it will look a bit cleaner than tying it to the bars. It's not the lights best feature but we did get a lot of lumens for the price...not a bad deal still.

You will need an Phillips screwdriver to take the light out. To start, the gray panel in front comes off (just pull a little and try not to break it). Under that panel in the middle of the left side there is an access panel open that up and you light module is behind that. There is about 3 screws to undo before you try to pull it out.
