Hi, I've found the easiest way to replace the bulb is first remove the center console, just 4 screws. I took this time to clean and wash it, rather my wife did. The remove the two screws near the dash side of the shift console, now there are two screws at the rear of the shift console that just need to be loosened because that end of the shift console has two slotted plastic tabs the screws go over, these are easy to break ( I have broken one) the screws are a pain to loosen too. then just raise the shift console and remove the light bulb from it's socket ( a half or quarter turn ) and remove the bulb from its socket. Now just reverse all the steps. If you have the time or patience left, you can vacumn everywhere ( I did ). One problem I had was that the wires that are at the socket were broken so I went to a local auto-recycler ( junk yard ) and went and found a bulb socket assy and removed it, paid for it ($5.00 ) and instaled it. I hope this helps and good luck. Steve H.
