    Center console gauges, bulb replacement.




    Turns out I've managed to burn out both light bulbs in those gauges, how would I go about getting in there and replacing them?

    Put car in "1"

    Grab Gauge Pod on both sides.

    Pull towards the Shifter.

    Pull out Bulbs.

    Reverse.

    He means move the shifter all the way back into "1" gear position, to give you room to mess around with the gauges.

    ^^^what they said^^^

    Steve, while you've got the gauge pod out, now's the time to replace the fake oil pressure gauge with a real working one.

    You might be well advised to put the parking brake on first and it wouldn't hurt to chock the wheels.

    I'm glad you asked this question as it's been bothering me that mine is out and I keep forgetting to change it until it's 12 at night.
