Yeah i've done it, be very careful it is a bitch to get the climate control part out. First you remove the screws that are above the speedometer then you remove the u-shaped peice by the radio. then with that open you'll see two more screws juust below the climate control unit. I personally removed the radio too since it gives you more room to work with. To get the radio out there are 4 screws that remove the radio and the box below it. Once all the screws are out slowly pry the dash start from the drivers side and then work your way around, BE Careful some parts are very easy to break. Once that is moved out of the way you can remove the screws that hole the climate control system in. Also just pull off the temp. knob and remove the screw that is there, it will release the cable/temp unit. Also remove the inside/outside air knob and then remove the metel lever from its pivot point (theres a clip that holds it in) once all of that is done just unplug the other wires and you can take the unit out. If your replacing the bulbs they have black wires and are on the top of the back panal. Just some pointers be careful the lightbulbs, and screws are easy to loose and fall down into the dash. Also keep the little green condom things that are around the bulbs,(I lost one and i cant find where to get a replacment one) if you want to keep the dash the regular green. Mine is white now and it looks fine. If you get stuck or just have some ?'s just P.M. me
