Remove the ash tray by pushing down the tab and pulling out.

Remove the two screws from the ash tray "holder" and pull the holder away from the console a little - I don't think you have to pull it all the way out.

Once that holder is loose, you will find the wood panel with the climate control switches, etc. will be loose and it will pull away from the console. Of course it is still connected via electrical connectors, etc. so it won't move very far. You may have to disconnect a couple things in order to get the access you need to change the bulb.

Peer back directly behind where that wood panel was... you will see a funny looking "spider" thing with all those black tubes connected to it. The bulb holder is right in the center of this, if you can reach back in there a quarter turn should allow this bulb holder to be removed, exposing the tiny bulb.

The bulb just pulls out of this holder, and the new one can be inserted. You will be working by feel since the wiring to the bulb holder will not allow it to move more than a couple inches or so.

I am doing this from memory so someone please pipe in here if I am describing something incorrectly...

best,

Dave
