It is simple yet involved, open the ash tray, take out the insert, loosen screw holding front cover of ash tray, remove cover by pulling up., put aside. The next step is critical, there are two "torx" screws that go from the upper panel to the lower panel. These are not the phillips yo see when looking down these are giong in sideways. The best tool is on ofset "torx" about a half a turn at the time, they have a big body and small thread and join the two panels. remove the ring around the shifter, it is held by friction, gently lift the front of the panel (where the screws were) and pull forward. the panel is held to the console by two fingers in the back. If you break them you are screwed.
You can unplug the connectors to work, the bulb is in the side of the shifter.
Be carefull, the radio panel comes off after removing the radio and the two screws in the radio opening and two more down in the ash tray area
