no need to take dash out if wanting to replace bulbs in instrument cluster. Should be 2 torx screws in the top of the surround, if you take those out and remove surround, you'll get at cluster

pretty sure it's just 2, torx 10 i think they are. Surround should just unclip when screws are removed

Remove the steering surround first. Makes it much easier Wink

Also, when you fit the new bulb, test first before putting everything back together as the bulbs only work one way Smile

I thought there were 2 at the top of the clock surround and 2 at the bottom of it, partly hidden by the steering wheel cowl.

As Mark says above, take the steering wheel cowl off; you will need it off to get the instruments out anyway. 3 X T20 for that, from the bottom.

Lower the wheel down to its lowest setting too, that helps.

Once the cowl and surround are off, then there are another 3 or 4 screws that hold the clocks into the dash. Think its 4; 2 top and 2 bottom.

You will have to wriggle the clocks out as much as you can, and then squeeze your hand past them to unplug them. Once thats done, then you can wriggle them out past the steering wheel.

The lamps are all on little black lampholders on the PCB on the back.
