Default DIC touch buttons....bulb replacement

The buttons that control the DIC must in in two banks as the lowe set of buttons do not light up anymore.
Is there a sight I can go to for information how to access the bulbs for replacement.

I have a burnt/loose DIC bulb as well, and found this link while researching. I'll be upgrading to blue LEDs rather than replacing the bad bulb(s).

Just going to put this here for anyone showing up since the shutdown of Vette Essentials. Their docs are still online, if you are good at the internet archive:
