You will need a small/thin flat tipped screwdriver to take the bulb out and then simpy replace it with a new bulb.

I ended up finding my bulbs at O'Reillys for 2.50 for the pair. The only difference was that the new bulb was 1/10th of a volt lower and had a different color backing "Orange" (NO BIG DEAL) but it fit perfectly and was way cheaper.

Can i get more details on how to remove the instrument cluster? Pictures if you got them.

Thanks.
