Default 2001 SEL Removing Cluster

Hi there,

I was wondering how can the instrument cluster be removed. One of the lights insde there has burnt out and i need to replace it, that is why im asking. First off, let me know if its possible to replace just the bulbs without having to replace the whole unit. If there is a guide on the internet or some sort of reference that i could read on, ide really appreciate if you could point it out. I am also looking at replacing the light bulbs in the Centre Console. So if someone could please help me out with that one as well... Thanks !!

Trial and error. It is usually just clipped into place. Sometime there may be a couple of hidden screws up on front cover to be removed first. I think I had one out recently and it was not that difficult. Once you remove cover there is 4 screws holding cluster in.

Hayapower,
Can you post details or send me an email with the information you have on this topic? I also have a bulb out in the instrument cluster on my 02 SES that I would like to fix.
Thanks very much!
