i need step by step instructions on how to remove the lights underneath my instrument panel. I got the bulbs, and tried to get in there, but i couldnt find the bulbs inside. How to you take the front panel off to get to the bulbs?

if youre doing this and the dash is still in the car, when you remove the dash bezel off the digi dash, theres 4 silver caps, and you take them off and the bulbs are behind it.

What are you stuck on? Which panel are you referring to?The dash bezel itself?

Or Do you have the digi dash out of the car already and taking off the back panel?
Elaborate more...and BTW its pretty easy to do once ya figure it out.

Turn the caps to where it slotted a little bit and it will pop out with a small hook or screwdriver.If its not slotted they should pop off with a screwdriver but work with care not to pry too hard.
