Instrument cluster
Hi folks. How difficult it would be to replace the left most bulb ilumunating the left corner of the instrument cluster ? is it doable at home, or take it to a pro? Thanks.

Just go by an indy shop and have them pop it out for you. You can still drive the car with it loose (or with it fully taken out).

You can make them with a coat hanger (search for that term on here). I have taken it out with a screw driver and even my bare hands. The key is to understand how it fits in there, where to pull, and how hard. Don't scratch anything or put to much pressure on the glass, which can break.

I have a DIY in the C43 section.
