Take a phillips screwdrive and remove the trim panel fasteners. Remove the trim pannel that surrounds the instrument cluster. the clear shield can be removed by squeezing the clips along the edges. To remove the instrument cluster bulbs turn the holders in the counter clockwise direction, then pull the bulb and bulb holder from the back of the instrument cluster. dont for get to disconnect the negative battery cable before you start.
