hi,
my first time hear (and english is not my mother tongue- so be kind with any mis-spells.
i need to chang a bulb or two (actually, i'll replace them all) in the dash-bord.
the place is behind the speedometer. ooops!
is there an easy way to do it? or do i have to dismantle the whole dash-board unit?
i'm worry that afterward it will start making noises...after all it is made our of plastic.
thx

You need to remove the upper dash (two screws above the instruments), then gently pull the plastic upper dash up and off. (Much easier to do than it sounds). You now have access to remove the clocks etc.

Hope that helps.

the two screws are those infront of the clock and on the upper?

The two screws are on the inside top of the dash (speedo, rev counter etc), once removed you can lift and pull away the plastic upper that covers the clocks, heater vents etc. You might get caught up on the hazard switch if it is on top of the steering cowling but there are no other screws to remove. (Mines a 1999 model)
