Default HVAC fish eye bulb change 79'

It's the hidden bulb under the center of the dash shines down on HVAC controls. Can I replace it w/o removing the center gauge cluster? Remove the glovebox and reach up?

No you can't. There just isn't enough room.
You will need to remove four screws on the gauge console and two on the bottom of the console. Under the shift console.

You will have to pull the gauge cluster out enough to get to the bulb.

Make sure the bulb is working before you put it back together.
