I need to change out that light, and have have been searching online with no such luck on how to get to the bulb.
I have an older Civic that I am able to pop the area open easily to get to the bulb, but for the life of me, I can't figure out or find out how to get to the Fit's bulb.

This is for an automatic.

 

Are you talking about the floor-shifter? I don't think it's illuminated (at least it's not on an 09 Base).

 

Sorry, is this area called something else?
The light behind the P R N D S

 

look at collegehillshonda and pull the pdf/video on how to install the OEM armrest. It will show you how to pull the center console/shifter. from there the oval with the gear letters will be exposed and you should find a screw or two remove. there is a bulb under there. just twist counterclockwise and pull it off.

p.s. if you are switching to LED. make sure you get a white LED. i put a blue LED in there and now u can't see P & R since it's filtered out.

 

Funny thing, during my research that video did come up, but I thought it'd be easier to do instead of taking that whole middle console up so I didn't even try it.
But thank you for confirming! Done in 10 minutes.

Mahalo!

 

aloha to u too

 

Oh yeah, it is lit! I've ignored it for 5 years as it serves no purpose in a darkened interior: you can't tell which gear is selected as there's no tell-tale on the selector. I always just look at the dash board indicator lights to know I've hit the big D.

 

Haha just realized too that it's lit.

 

Just wanted to find out what is the replacement bulb for the Honda Fit 2010 gear shift indicator light.
