the replacement lamps are cheap. taking the dash apart is easy but time consuming.

exellent, where can i get this stuff, do i need to order a kit for my car?

how do i get apart the dash?

the lamps sould be easy to find. look around on the net. as for the dash, every car is different....just start taking it apart. tons os screws and small pieces though. if you haven't do it before, you may want to get someone who has.

It's really not that hard, and it's even cheaper.

My gauges were all blue and I bought LED replacement bulbs, 5 of them, for less than a dollar each.

As for putting them in, it's different for each car, but probably not too hard. Basically just remove screws in the right order, pull stuff off, get your gauge cluster out, pop out the lights (they are usually in wedge based thumb screws, really easy to get off) and put the new ones in then reassemble everything.
