Best Answer

Remove the four instrument panel screws. On an automatic transmission model you must also remove 2 screws and detach the gearshift indicator cluster. When you pull it out partially.. disconect the speedometer cable from the back. Once you have it out you will see all of the instrument bulbs on the back. Please disconnect your battery anytime your working around or near your airbag system.
