What bulb is it ?
ive had the center console on and off that many times lol.
the heater dial bulb is soldered into place. The Temp dial and Directional dials best to just use needle nose grips and pull the bulbs.
And the Clock dispaly has 2 screws at the back just remove and twist the bulbs again using the needle nose grips.
I dont know if im gona get a chance this weekend but i wanted to remove the speed dials etc to replace the bulbs, and to try and find the rattling in my car.

so i had a thought today when i seen this advert come on the telly and decided id give these a go for my sticker bomb idea. the detail of the pictures are far better then printing of the net and also the quality of the paper is too.
my idea is to do the centre console, inside the clocks, the clock on dashboard and the surround for the light switch and blower vents. my idea is to pva glue it and then use clear laquer to protect it. im stripping my centre console out of my spare corsa tomorrow and will start the work too. ill upload pictures of it and show you of progress tomorrow.
just a question though, can the centre console be stripped right down so i can take out the number 1,2,3,4 on the speed switch??
