2002 odyssey. Clock light bulb and bulb for rear heat/air control burned out. Can anyone help with replacing them? How do I take the dash apart? Thanks

It's a very common problem, the clock light anyway. Below is a link to a How-to with detailed steps and a pic. Since you'll have the A/C controls out anyway, you can change that bulb too while doing the clock light. Just as a suggestion, solder in an LED like I did so you'll never have to worry about it again OR get a replacement bulb from Radio Shack. They're like $2.50 a pair as opposed to like $9 each at the dealer. Hope this helps... good luck.

Ripped the dash apart on the weekend...no problem. Got the bulb for the clock at the dealer...$5.00 CDN and had to order the rear heat/air control bulb...$6.00CDN. Went today to get the bulb on order...wrong one...right one should be in tomorrow. Other than that snag it's a piece of cake to replace dash bulb lights. Dealer wanted almost $100 CDN to do it (which is like $75.00 US). Thanks again for the info.
