Climate control lights

Hi All,

First post, so please dont be a repost haha

I did a quick search, it showed how to remove the unit but not how to replaced bulbs.

The ones in red are out/blown, can i replace the bulbs with out removing the entire stereo/HVAC unit from the dash? How are the bulbs replaced meaning can you pry off the face of the HVAC?

Thanks

Also...should the steering wheel radio/cruise buttons light up at night?

If so, i assume i just pry the controls off to get to the bulbs?

Thanks

You pull the hvac unit out of the dash and then remove the rear cover of the hvac unit. The bulbs twist out from behind. you do not need to remove the face of the hvac unit.

^^ correct.

And the cruise control stuff on the steering wheel is NOT supposed to light up.

I found it in an old thread and actually used it to replace mine.
