Default 99accord coupe clock light don't work

Is the clock light for a 99 accord coupe hard to replace the light? If not, how do I do it? Anyone else have this problem of the bulb dying?

Yep, it's a common problem. Mine has gone off for a day or two a couple times. Then just comes back on. It's easy to pull the clock out, try and re-adjust the bulb, if that doesn't work, try a new bulb. All you do is pry at the edges of the clock, careful not to scratch the trim. I can remove mine with my fingers, but the first time it required a small flathead screwdriver.

My clock light doesn't work either, I ended purchasing a new clock and that didn't do a dam thing. Wish I could help but I haven't figured it out yet, all fuses are good to go.

Ive got an 00 coupe and my clock like doesnt work either, but the hazard light switch doesnt light up at night either so I think its a bigger problem than the bulbs. When I do an LED conversion ill pop it open and check it out. Does anyone elses hazard button light up??? or is it 2 different bulbs in there???

My clock doesn't work with the key off and lights on, but if I start the car it works fine. I went to buy a bulb before I looked at the clock one night while driving to buy a new bulb -- DOH!!

So, how do you replace it...that was my original question...Just pop the plastic around the click with a flathead?
