850 R Dash light replacement

[stapos]

1 or 2 bulbs need replacing on my '96 R dash, is this a difficult job? if not any tips please. Thanks in anticipation, Stapos

Not really, you need to remove the top of the dash, to do this you need to remove the torx screws above the clocks, in the vents on the ends of the dash (where the dash meets the doors), above the glove box and inside the vents (the vents need prising out from one side). One out the dash top lifts off, undo the two large fastners ontop of the clocks, unplug the wiring and lift the clocks out. The bulbs are just twist and pull once you get to them.
