Glove box light

Have any of you bros tried taking off your glove box door? Is it an easy thing to do?

I bought a wireless LED light from Daiso and stuck it on with self adhesive tape but it came off after a few days. It's a bit hard to see the optimal position inside the glove box with the door still attached.

It actually worked very well and I was really happy with the result but need to find a better position for sticking.

Bro Satyr,

TIPS #1,
To open the glove box/compartment, the answer is very easy and simple, please open this link and find for the picture title COMPARTMENT
http://www.hondafreedsg.com/t161-love-this

All in Japanase as i believe it should not be a problem for you to read
And if possible and if you so kind to translate it for us cheers

TIPS #2
BEFORE you apply the double side tape, please always remember to "remove" the oil/moisture on the destination surface
There are plenty of types of oil removal in the market, you can start using the alcohol pad and apply it on the surface.

i understand the concept of the compartment lights you've bought, it will switch on when the small sensor is not parallel with the light, and vice versa.
I have seen it somewhere in the website Japan, but unfortunately i don't know how to source here in Singapore

Hope those tips help you, and if it is, please do share with us the pictures ok?
cheers

Cheers sevenseaters. The pics confirm what I already thought, just need to squeeze in the two side stoppers. cheers

Didn't want to force it and damage the glove box if it wasn't the right thing to do though! pale

Hey Freed_GB3,
Looks good but too technical for me! rabbit

Push the board indicated by e red arrow to bend it inward on both sides.
This will dis-engage the compartment from the fix position. Here u will see the
aircon pre-filter tray and now u can see how to best fit your lights.
Hope this helps.
Cheers mate cheers
