How do I replace lights in dash?

[HNTMUP]

Need to replace lights for fan, temp and air/heat direction. Hoping this one is REAL simple.

Thanks

It is fairly simple. It has been a few month since i pulled my dash apart so this is from memory... The black bezel around the inst cluster has two screws that go up into the dash. IIRC other than the two screws there are some catches that you can pop out. Once the bezel is out of the way the inst cluster is screwed into supports. To make it easier disconnect the electrical connectors along the top of the cluster. You will see black rubber knobs on the back of the cluster. Each knob is a bulb holder, a quarter turn and they should come right out.

While you are at it, here's the article about changing colors if you really don't like the Toyota green.
