98 S500 - Dash/Cluster Light Replacement?

I just bought a '98 S500 which seems to be in very good condition however the left side of the instrument cluster light is not working. Any tips for diagnosing this and/or replacing the lights?

Any other words of wisdom for a new S500 owner?

Check out the article on www.v12uberalles.com on removing the instrument cluster. Once you get it out of the dash, you should see little bulb backings on the back of the instrument cluster. Just pop out the bulb and replace it with a new one.

Congrats on becoming a W140-owner!
