overhead compass/ gauge bulb replacement

2001 F-250

Does the the overhead electronic computer/compass-temp guage have lightbulbs that are re-placeable in it . Mine looks dim/dark on the outside edges of the display. If there is, how do you open it up ? I can see some plastic tabs/clips on the inside of the sunglasses pocket but I'm not sure how to remove?

Here's a couple more that may come in handy.

fixed

Thanks again.

Update in my case the display worked fine (I guess lucky so far.) However I thought it was dimly lit, so instead of putting on a switch like you did, I just disconnected the blue with red tracer wire from behind pass.side kick panel and it's now brightly lit all the time.
