dash light replacement

Has anyone replace the bulbs in their dash before? The bulb for my speedometer is out and it just seems like there has got to be an easier way to replace a bulb than having to disconnect the speedo and tach to do it. Anyway if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks

Depends what year you have . The 87-90 you need to take apart.You may have enough slack to do it with out removing speedo ETC. But I'd take time and at least clean contacts if not replace all bulbs. According to all my manuals its remove and replace.

The 92 up trucks they have harness only connection (electronic speedo ) And there is slack that you could replace most bulbs in place. But you want to make sure all are contacting good.
