Cracked cab roof light

SouthpawHD · October 1, 2016

So driving down the highway yesterday and a rock jumped up and over my hood and then BAM! Smashed into the center can roof light. There is small hole in it now (better than hitting a painted surface!). Anyone know if I can just get a new cover for the unit, or does the whole thing need to be replaced? Is it a DYI?

Deftinely need to fix soon as I could see water leaking through it and causing bigger issues down the road.

It easier just to buy a whole new one I'm almost positive it's just one big piece, maybe and excuse to pick up and aftermarket one, recon has one I like that has maybe 5 lights in it over the factory 3.

Its gonna be the whole lamp. 23463750. They are bolted in from the inside now, so you will have to drop the front of the headliner down to access the connector and the bolts. Sunshades would have to be pulled, the grab handles for the front doors, maybe the B pillar trim and the roof console. Actually...I wonder if removing just the front roof console would get you access to it all...

Hmmm, might just have to look into that.

Yikes! That's probably a bigger undertaking than I can do on my own. Might have to check in with dealer and claim warranty item ;)

You can get to the two bolts that the center light attaches with by just just taking the headliner console off. I've accessed mine this way and didn't have to drop the headliner.
