How do I replace bulb in CCU?

Can anyone tell me how to open up the climate control unit (92 300D) to replace the light bulb? I see two tabs on top and two on bottom....just want to make sure I don't break anything.

Thanks.

You don't have to take it apart. Look at the front of the CCU, just above the buttons. You will see two innocent-looking pieces of black tape. Under the tape are holes in which two bulbs live. Use a piece of tubing to capture and pull out the old bulbs. You may have to experiment to find the right size tubing.

the tape may also be metallic tape.
