How to remove a certain light bulb...

Post by E170_Driver »

The light behind the driver's side temperature dial went out. How do I remove this unit from the console/dashboard in order to get to the bulb? Anything to worry about while going in?

Thanks much

The key to this is that little strip of moulding at the bottom with the little rubber tab on it. Use a pocket screwdriver to get into the sides and pry that little panel off of there. underneath will be a few screws to remove. Just go from there and you'll be all set.

There's not a lot to worry about here. Most parts clip in... removing them may make you feel like your going to break them. Just be firm and you'll be fine.
