#3 of 21 INTERIOR DOME LIGHT by local817 Dec 04, 2006 (5:36 pm)
HOW DO THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COME OFF TO CHANGE THE LIGHT BULB?

The cover lens snaps off. You can use a small jewelers screwdriver to pop it off. That exposes the bulbs. Replies to this message: etgust (Jan 18, 2007 5:14 pm) eaglepilot (Jan 25, 2007 1:41 pm) switch61 (Nov 27, 2007 12:18 am) hon (Dec 12, 2007 3:26 pm)
#5 of 21 Poor lighting with low beams- normal? by etgust Jan 18, 2007 (5:14 pm)
Replying to: jeff_in_lv (Jan 06, 2007 10:12 pm) New topic: We took home a 2007 Pilot, FWD to test drive for the night. Thank goodness, because the lights are very low. There is a very distinct line where the lights end. The bright lights light very well. Can this be fixed/adjusted by the dealer? Is this normal. If so, will be very hard to get used too. Just doesn't seem to be adequate lighting, unless the brights are on. Any thoughts or similar experiences? Otherwise, really like the vehicle performance.

#7 of 21 Switching 2004 tail lights for the 2006 by fx35awd Jan 30, 2007 (11:10 am)
Hi Every one I am fairly new to this forum. I was wondering if the back tail lights on the 2006 will fit in the 2004 Honda Pilot since some one or some thing has broke our left tail light so I am thinking of changing them with the clear ones from the 2006 model. Also, how difficult would it be to replace these tail lights. Thank you in advance. Replies to this message: odie6l (Feb 02, 2007 8:02 am)

Replying to: etgust (Jan 18, 2007 5:14 pm) The adjustment is very easy; it can be done with a wrench or socket.   The 2006/2007 Pilots have projector lamps, so you'll get a very distinct cutoff. If you believe the lights are adjusted to low, have a dealer set them to the correct height. If you want brighter lights, don't waste you money on any of the hyped up blue bulbs. There may be a bulb or two that are a bit brighter, but the only way to get a decent increase in brightness through a bulb change is to go with an over-watted bulb (i.e. 80W low beam). Those types of bulbs typically do not last long, and I know of no information on whether it will not adversely affect the electrical system. The best way to get brightness, but at a bit of a cost, is to go HID. It's $250, but you will immediately notice a significant difference.
#11 of 21 2007/2008 Pilot Headlights by dave2500 Dec 03, 2007 (6:44 am)
I just leased a 2008 Pilot EX-L. Like the car a lot except the headlights. They are not bright enough and you see a very distinct line where the low beams end. I personally feel that this vehicle is unsafe to drive in rural areas such as where I live. I have spoken many times to Honda and they will admit nothing is wrong and I am the ONLY customer complaining about this issue. I want to see if I am crazy or if others are bothered by this. The car just turned 1 month old has only 900 miles on it and I am considering ways to either get out of the lease or possibly sue Honda or do a class action lawsuit if others are also bothered by this. I consider this a major safety issue. Please let me know if you have ever experienced this or if I am crazy.   Thanks!
