Instrument panel bulb replacement
#11
Which green bulbs? If I am not mistaken there are 3 "big" bulbs and 2 small available for repacement from the back, not more. The 3 big ones are for lighting the panel in general, one of the small ones is for main road light (blue I guess).
And to be honest I do not find the main light of the panel hideous. It is perfect for driving in the night as new leds are by far brighter, which makes my eyes sore after half an hour of night driving.

Well, actually I did not look into the inside of the panel. Just disassembled it and removed the back milky cover. Found nothing but electronics there and many screws. I am not sure if this is enough to unscrew them to get to the leds and was affraid to do more damage.
But if somebody confirms how to get to the inside of the panel without damaging anything, I will continue with my quest :-)

Honestly I would just replace the cluster. Get a good used one, pay a local indie rover shop to resynch it and be done. Probably will cost you $75 for everything, but you'll have everything working as it should.

You might be able to find another member close to you that has something that can be used to resynch it.
