Hey guys,

I've done a forum search for this but the only thing that came close was to remove the lens from the side with a screwdriver, there's no way a screwdriver will fit in the space beside the lens on mine!

There's a moth INSIDE my overhead reading light and I don't know how to get the cover off. It seems the whole plastic housing is hinged at the back so I tried to lever it from the front but it seems to need a LOT of levering and before I end up snapping it off altogether, just wanted to hear from you guys because I know someone here will know Smile

If it makes any difference, its a 2004 model

Any help is appreciated! Thanks for reading Smile

It is pretty tight, so either get a smaller screwdriver or use a thinner tool of a different kind, maybe a kitchen knife.

Inserting it about a mm or so (on the right hand side [might work from the left too, but the right is what I used]) and levering it out IS how to do it, both for the main light and the map reading light.

It does come out eventually. Just try to be gentle but firm. I used right hand side aswell and that seemed to work
