You need to remove the instrument cluster.

The cluster is very easy to remove. You have to remove the headlight switch, the cover just above the steering column, and the panel that houses the headlight switch and also goes around the cluster. Once that is out, just remove 4 bolts, 2 connectors and the gear display (just squeeze tabs and remove). With that, the cluster is out of the dash and in your hands.

It took me a total of about 14 minutes and that included disconnecting the battery (do this before you do anything else)

The bulbs can be seen on the back of the cluster.

Also:
Get yourself a Hayes manual...very useful tool!

Same thing is happening on my dash. A couple of lights decided to stay dark for ever!. Anyone know the type bulb to use in case I can't read the model # on the bulb itself??
Thanks!
