Default replacing DIC/HUD lights

Just a quick question - does the DIC panel just pull out and then the bulbs are replaced with the pop in LEDs? Or do you have to pull the entire console? Same question for the HUD side....does it pop out? And do you have to use regular LEDs for the HUD side? Thanks...been checking the threads but just didn't see if it was an easy pop off or more involved.

You have to remove the whole IPC to change the lamps in the DIC and HUD controls. The first post in this thread http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1996579 has the parts listing for every interior lamp that can be changed to LED. If you want help doing this I am available most weekends. PM me if you are interested.
