One of the FEW problems I notice with the '98 ODY LX-7 that I bought last week is that there is some sort of spotting on the inside of the clear instrument panel plastic. I would like to clean it. Has anyone tried to get the plastic out? I unscrewed the 2 phillips screws on the roof of the instrument panel shroud, but it doesn't help. I don't want to force anything. I haven't yet bought a repair manual. Steve Johnson, S.Calif.
Not sure on he 98 model, I had my 00 apart to install white face guages....it shouldn't be that hard..it's a honda!
just gently tug and pull and look for screws....they do come apart easily. on my Ody, you had to remove the ENTIRE black plastic trim piece to get to the guage.....just look around. there should be at least 2 more screws somewhere on the bottom.....
TrickedOdyssey: Thanks for your reply. I had to wait until my Helms 98 Shop manual arrived before I could remove the dash gauge plastic lens. Two screws are visible, but another screw is found only when you pop off the left vent, which I did. Apparently the previous owner had sprayed something that had eaten into the plastic. The only thing that worked was lacquer thinner. I worked for over an hour and ultimately rubbed the blemishes out, and now the plastic is sparkling clear. Thanks for your input. Steve Johnson, S.

Hey guys, I recently bought a 2020 EX-L, and one of the first things that I did was to tint the front windows (20%) and the sunroof (5%). I'm a redhead, as are most of my kids, and I hate the feeling of the sun hitting me.
I know the factory privacy glass really doesn't offer any UV protection...
I have a 2003 Honda Odyssey EX-RES with just about 160K miles. I am the original owner, have kept good maintenance records, and enjoyed it up until about 1 month ago when the transmission started to flare and then slip between 2nd and 3rd gears (somewhere between). I would attempt to accelerate...
I found a couple of old posts where people asked about the Detroit Axle brand of parts, but I never found any replies that answered specifically about anyone's experience installing their stuff and it's quality. There were some comments on their CV Axles being noisy. I'm specifically...
