Out of Curiosity, I don't need to do it yet, But How would I change the Automatic Gearshift Bulb on this '01 Civic LX with the Lidless Cup holder. My '03 EX Automatic Console is made a Good Bit Different and yes I have changed a Bulb in it already.
On My '03 EX, The front part of the Console had to come off just like changing the radio. Technically, the whole console should have been taken Out The Hell with that. But once I got the front Console part off, i pushed the Drivers Seat al the way back and I used Needle nose Pliers to get to the Socket and remove the Socket. I changed the Bulb and put the Socket back with the Needle nose Pliers and the put the front part of the Console on.
This Console seems to be all one Piece on the '01 LX, There has to be a much easier way to replace that one bulb than to remove the entire console to get to that damn tiny bulb. From what I gather, this earlier Console was used in the '01 and & '02 Civic. In '03 the Console design seems to have been changed. The '03 - '05 shifter bulb replacement there are instructions and videos everywhere to change those bulbs but not the earlier style in the LX.
