You need to remove the A pillars (the handle grips) on each side of the windshield. They are held in with 2 T25 screws.
You need to pry up the sub-straight (the 4.5 inch piece of plastic that runs along the top of the dashboard next to the windshield). Use a strong piece of plastic to pry up the sub-straight, because a metal tool might leave scratches.
At knee level, there is dark plastic dashboard trim which needs to be removed. I was able to just pull it out with my hands.
The A-lid (the plastic housing around the gauge cluster) is held in with 7 P2 Phillips head screws.
The gauge cluster is held in with 4 P2 Phillips head screws.
There is one wire connection on the back of the gauge cluster. Press the tab on the wire connector and pull it out.
With the gauge cluster free, you can turn in over. On the back of the gauge cluster you will see 9 red plastic light bulb holders. Use a 6 mm socket to loosen the light bulb holder for the burnt out bulb. Be careful to not use too much pressure with the socket wrench.
The replacement bulb I purchased from my dealer was part#4839738-AA.
My replacement bulb has a black light bulb holder, and not a red one.
It took me about 1 hour to do this.
The replacement light bulbs cost me $2.09 a piece.
