Default Turn Signal Indicator Light

I know that I should be smart enough to figure this out - but then again, maybe not! What is the easiest way (if there is such a thing) to replace a turn signal indicator light on a 78 Vette. Tried going under the console, but I'm old and large and that just didn't work. Thought about pulling the guage cluster, but when I took the cover off - it didn't seem to want to come out. Any help will be greatly appreciated. :confused:

Don,

Just did this last weekend.

I'm old to, but I got under there and just stuck my hand in and was able to pull the connector and replace the bulb. Some other alternatives I considered where to remove the drivers seat for better access or remove the console( you have to drop the steering column- :U ) or remove the dash and try to reach down from the top.

There is no easy way for us old and in my case plump guys to get to the bulb.

Good luck!
