How does one go about changing the dash board lights? I can barely see my speedometer at night even fully turned up.

Thanks,

Jim/ in the dark

Hi Jim, Thank you for the donation. You need to remove the instrument cluster to be able to replace the bulbs. After removing the screws of the instrument cluster, unplug the wire connectors to remove the cluster from the dash. After replacement of the bulbs, test if all bulbs are functioning before fully assembling the lid, etc as sometimes the bulbs might not work if they are not seated well.
