I believe I have several light bulbs that have to be replaced in the dash cluster. I bought the 194 bulbs but don't know how they are removed or reinstalled. I believe the bulb goes into a holder that twist on and off the cluster but don't know which direction. Is it counterclock wise to remove and clock wise to install? I don't want to turn the wrong direction and break something.

Yes that is the way they are installed. They only turn like a 1/4 turn then pull out. Bulb holder, counterclockwise to remove clock to install. Gary

I replaced two bulbs and it wasn't as difficult to get at as I thought it would be.
thanks Gary for your info on changing the bulbs.

This may be a dumb question, but can you get to all of the bulbs from just reaching up behind the dash cluster? After reading your post, I was just thinking that I must have some burnt out bulbs because mine is extremely dim. Thanks!

Does anyone know how many total 194 bulbs are located on the rear of the dash? I have at least a few burned out, but I've decided to upgrade them all to LED and want to make sure I get all of them. Thank you in advance!
