Hello,

It's very easy to change these lights ...
First you have to remove the plastic cover just below the steering wheel (4 or 6 screws). It's also easier to remove the steering wheel itself. Just pull out the central plate to access the 24 mm bolt and to remove it. You will need some energy to pull the wheel out.
Just below the dash you should find , one or two small screws (8 or 10 mm, don't remenber). Remove them so that you can take out the blulb with the clock or RPM indicator and the tachymeter. Remove it by inclinating it from the top. Then , just disconnect all the electrical connections to access the dash ligts.
Sorry for my english but it's not my native language !!!!

Good luck and do not hesitate to contact me again for more info.

JL
