Take off the lower panel that covers the brake pedal and then you need to remove the lower dash board. There are several screws in the panel. One is by the key area. It's a hole that has a screw way up inside. Then the panel snaps off. Be careful not to break the tab on the left side. You have to roll the dash down (lower portion) and remove it. The bulbs are accesable better if you use a small mm socket and extension. .It sounds complicated but on a 1-10 it's about a 3. Be sure to check them all b4 youput it all back together. I just did my 99 c280 sport. Better to not snap out the speedo head assy. If you distort the surround it will look like crapola and be a reminder til ever.
