Bulbs Out....

[wild4stangs]

Greetings all, I have a 94 DX Automatic, and I just noticed that the light bulbs seem to be out on the gear selector and the climate controls. Are these though to replace, hopefully without completely dismanteling the dash...

you have to take off the upper panel (the one with the clock vents radio and heater controls)
there are two screws at the bottom just over the cubby thing then it pulls straight out!

then you have to mess with the heater controls and get at the bulbs, the gear selector should be similar you will have to remove the trim peice around it then get in there and see (sorry mines 5spd)

Yeah, very simple on a 94. Ass Rolla Guy put it - but an easier way to describe it would be to get at the screws in the trip piece just above the console tray under the hvac controls. Grab a small flathead screwdriver and wrap some cloth around it to pry the top of the trim off that you just took the screws out of. There is no need to take the whole trim panel off, just pry the top off.

You then take all of the black knobs off the hvac controls (The A/C Button will pull out when you pull the rest off), then the whole top piece will just pull off. May take a bit of brute force, but they are just clip strips holding it on. There are then four screws on the hvac controls to remove them and the bulbs are inside the little black covers on top. A flathead will remove the covers easily.

With the Auto, just pry the shroud off (i think) and they should be there. Again, mine is 5spd, but the Pulsars are just underneath the shroud...
