Hello everyone. I'm a new Civic owner and need to know something before I delve into this project. I have a sweet 2002 Civic that needs one lamp replaced in the speedo cluster. Its dark at the 80mph section. Can I remove the bezel without removing the surrounding padded dash? It sure would be sweet if I could. I wonder if you can just get your hand up inside behind everything and feel around for the lamp socket assy? Probably not. Anyhow, would love to hear from others on this.

 

I would imagine it's just a matter of a couple screws. The previous EG and EK have two screws on the underside of the gauge cover "hood". Once those are out, the black trim piece that frames the gauges comes out. Then look for a few screws holding in the white plastic gauge cluster, and it should lift straight out once you disconnect the harnesses on the back. I think the bulbs are the balck (maybe green) rectangles that just twist out.

I'd do a Google search for something like "2002 Civic gauge install". I'll bet there's a ton of YouTube videos that'll show you exactly how to get the cluster out.
