Instrument cluster lights

The lights on the left of my instrument display have gone out.. How do I get in there??

Looking at the book, I pull the radio, pull 2 screws, then "pop" the cluster out??

Sound right?

Pull the radio, headlight switch, ESOF switch (If installed), then the plastic dash surround cover should pop off (12V power and the airbag deactivate are just connectors to pull loose after cover is loose) . There are 4 screws holding the cluster in. You will need to detach the trans shift indicator, but it is only a plastic latch so no big deal. You can then get to the bulbs pretty easy after removing the connector on the back of the cluster. Bulbs are in a 1/4 turn receptacle.
