Burnt out center dash lights S70 1998

PL,
Is it any easier then the radio? Well....about a dozen screws have to be removed which are found under the speaker grills, behind the air vents and around the instrument panel. The entire dash cover is then lifted up and the bulbs are then accessable. The dealerships usually replace the entire bulb family with a bulb kit that is sold specifically for the instrument panel, figuring after going to this much trouble, you might as well re-fresh all the bulbs. My suggestion after doing this, dim your instrument/panel bulbs down say from 100% brillience to 90%. You won't be changing bulbs for a very long time after doing so. I have gone four years without a bulb failure, and just recently one of the instrument bulbs went out (behind the trip computer). When I get around to having it replaced, I'll purchase the kit and have them all done.
