Hi Guys,

Does anyone know how to remove the map light assembly. I can see two screws inside the sunglass holder but can't find any other screws to remove.

The reason I want to do this is that I want to tap into a 12V supply for my Valentine One radar detector which is mounted close by on the windscreen.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I'll need to look again. I did mine over a year ago and can't recall.

Did you end up tapping a power source for the v1 there? I opened the assembly, but once I saw the loom decided to put it off to another day and run power up the a-pillars.

PS, for those searching on how to remove the map light assembly, it's pretty easy. Remove the too screws behind the plastic tabs in the eye-glass holder. Then pull the assembly out. There are two of the blue plastic body molding tabs on the opposite side of where the screws are located.
 
Hi Brian,

No, I ended up running a cable directly to one of the batteries.

Thanks for the info ... I'm going to try and tackle that this weekend.

Just so we have it in the thread for others in future searching, here is a pic of the assembly:

Just remove the two screws and then pull in the appropriate location to remove the panel from the retaining pins.
