Well you dont really need part number if your wanting o replace the bulbs in the Guage cluster. Most of the bulbs are wedge style #74 bulbs. They are just pushed into a base and can be easily removed. You find those mostly any where that sells bulbs. Now the AC panel ( Right panel) on the dash bezel. Those bulbs are primary T4 Type B bulbs. The lefts panel, radio control and start button are T3 Type A style bulbs. You can purchase those here...Aftermarket LEDs

just did this.
...but now my steering wheel doesnt feel correct, it feels like its stiffer and notchy when i turn the wheel in place. i dont have a torque wrench so is it possible I over tightened the nuts???
I went back and loosened them a tad and it seems fine now,...
I also notice that my climate control(top knob) is only illuminated on the far right 3 settings.....anyone know what the deal is there?? is there a seperate bulb that was out that I didnt know about?

wow. this one took me the whole day!
my tip: make sure you have a 12mm telescopic socket, the standard stubby one was impossible to use (for me).
also ap2 has differences: there is a plastic bar under the column and hence the column does not 'completely' come down like it would on an ap1 i think.
and at the end of it all my volume toggle knob lights up then dies intermittently; but at long-ish intervals, its not 'blinking'. its like on for 10-15s then off for 7s then on for 5s then off for 8s (just an example). haha

and I'm thinking about replacing all of them with oem ones. Has anyone who has done this know the price to replace all of the oem bulbs?
