It seems as if one of the lights that back lit part of my display has gone out (the one behind the gas meter) on the far right. Can you replace the bulb? And if so where do I get those from?

Do I just remove the front bezel to get at it? Or do I have to take the whole dash off?

Links, and advice or any help you have would be appreciated.

Yes, you can replace the bulbs. You would have to take out the cluster. Honda sells them.

You have to drop the steering column to get to the IP - its a lot of bolts but not difficult, especially if you have a friend who knows what he's doing. There are DIYs from people that replace the bulbs with LEDs or other colors on here, I think the in the Electronics forum.

it's pretty easy. I did it on my ap2 cluster a few months back. Took about 45 minutes to do it from beginning to end. Search for the LED cluster DIY, and it gives you a good idea on how to get the cluster out.

Thanks for the direction.
Colors? If any one has pics of how that looks behind the orange looking display please feel free to post them up.
