Vent selector light and fan speed light don't work

I need help to replace these lights. I have done searches but can't seem to find a simple answer to replace these lights on a 1992 Camry sedan. Would somebody please tell me?

Thanks

It's about a 20 minute job, and you need a small (type 37 or 74) bulb (does anyone else have a definitive answer on the bulb type? Both fit, but I'm not sure of OEM voltage or amperage).

Getting to the bulb is fairly straightforward:

1. Pop the surround on the radio using a taped flat screwdriver near the cigarette lighter, and then on the opposite side.
2. Once that is off, take the dash trim out. There are two screws in front of the instrument cluster, and two near the radio (one on either side). Be careful of the wiring for the power mirror and dimmer controls.
3. A screw on either side of the HVAC control will let you take that out. Pull the knobs off the fan and temp controls. You will see 6 tabs (3 on top, 3 on the bottom) that hold the face plate to the rest of the unit. Pop off the faceplate carefully, and you should see the bulb behind that.
4. Assembly is the reverse.
